i2d_ASN1_OBJECT(): allocate memory if the user didn't provide a buffer



Since 0.9.7, all i2d_ functions were documented to allocate an output
buffer if the user didn't provide one, under these conditions (from
the 1.0.2 documentation):

    For OpenSSL 0.9.7 and later if B<*out> is B<NULL> memory will be
    allocated for a buffer and the encoded data written to it. In this
    case B<*out> is not incremented and it points to the start of the
    data just written.

i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was found not to do this, and would crash if a NULL
output buffer was provided.

Fixes #6914
