A provider could be linked against a different version of libcrypto than
the version of libcrypto that loaded the provider. Different versions of
libcrypto could define opaque types differently. It must never occur that
a type created in one libcrypto is used directly by the other libcrypto.
This will cause crashes.
We can "cheat" for "built-in" providers that are part of libcrypto itself,
because we know that the two libcrypto versions are the same - but not for
other providers.
To ensure this does not occur we use different types names for the handful
of opaque types that are passed between the core and providers.

This is largely based on the existing X25519 and X448 serializers - but
a few adjustments were necessary so that we can identify what type of key
we are using. Previously we used the keylen for this but X25519 and
ED25519 have the same keylen.

Provide serializers for X25519 and X448 for text, pem and der. There are
no parameter serializers because there are no parameters for these
algorithms.
Add some documentation about the various import/export types available
Add additional testing for the serializers
