Add a way for the application to get OpenSSL configuration data
OpenSSL_version(OPENSSL_DIR) gives you a nicely formatted string for display, but if all you really want is the directory itself, you were forced to parsed the string. This introduces a new function to get diverse configuration data from the library, OPENSSL_info(). This works the same way as OpenSSL_version(), but has its own series of types, currently including: OPENSSL_INFO_CONFIG_DIR returns OPENSSLDIR OPENSSL_INFO_ENGINES_DIR returns ENGINESDIR OPENSSL_INFO_MODULES_DIR returns MODULESDIR OPENSSL_INFO_DSO_EXTENSION returns DSO_EXTENSION OPENSSL_INFO_DIR_FILENAME_SEPARATOR returns directory/filename separator OPENSSL_INFO_LIST_SEPARATOR returns list separator For scripting purposes, this also adds the command 'openssl info'.
