Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation (CVE-2018-0734).
Avoid a timing attack that leaks information via a side channel that triggers when a BN is resized. Increasing the size of the BNs prior to doing anything with them suppresses the attack. Thanks due to Samuel Weiser for finding and locating this. Reviewed-by: Bernd Edlinger <bernd.edlinger@hotmail.de> (Merged from https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/7486)
