doc: clarify SSL_CIPHER_description allocation

Previously the documentation for `SSL_CIPHER_description` said:
> If buf is provided, it must be at least 128 bytes, otherwise a buffer
> will be allocated using OPENSSL_malloc().

In reality, `OPENSSL_malloc` is only invoked if the provided `buf`
argument is `NULL`. If the `buf` arg is not `NULL`, but smaller than
128 bytes, the function returns `NULL` without attempting to allocate
a new buffer for the description.

This commit adjusts the documentation to better describe the implemented
behaviour.

man: harmonize the various formulations in the HISTORY sections

While stereotyped repetitions are frowned upon in literature, they
serve a useful purpose in manual pages, because it is easier for
the user to find certain information if it is always presented in
the same way. For that reason, this commit harmonizes the varying
formulations in the HISTORY section about which functions, flags,
etc. were added in which OpenSSL version.

It also attempts to make the pod files more grep friendly by
avoiding to insert line breaks between the symbol names and the
corresponding version number in which they were introduced
(wherever possible). Some punctuation and typographical errors
were fixed on the way.

Fix the names of older ciphers.

The names of these ciphers have an "SSL_" prefix, but the RFC names use
"TLS_":
https://www.iana.org/assignments/tls-parameters/tls-parameters.xhtml#tls-parameters-4

This dates back to these ciphers being originally defined in SSLv3. As
SSLv3 is on its way out anyway and this is a new set of APIs,
consistently use the TLS names.
