If BN_STRICT is defined, don't accept an ambiguous representation of zero 

(ie. where top may be zero, or it may be one if the corresponding word is
set to zero). Note, this only affects the macros in bn.h, there are probably
similar corrections required in some c files.

Also, clarify the audit-related macros at the top of the header. Mental
note: I must not forget to clean all this out before 0.9.8 is released ...
