bbecf04e78 Make manuals with TYPE conform with man-pages(7)
Details from man-pages(7) that are used:

    Formatting conventions for manual pages describing functions

        ...
        Variable names should, like argument names, be specified in italics.
        ...

    Formatting conventions (general)

        ...
        Special macros, which are usually in uppercase, are in bold.
        Exception: don't boldface NULL.
        ...

Furthermore, for TYPE used as a placeholder for types and correponding
part of function names, we extrapolate that it's both a type and a
variable, and should therefore be bold (typical for types and function
names) and italic (typical for variables).  POD processors don'e know
this, so we have to help them along.  Therefore:

   SPARSE_ARRAY_OF(TYPE)        => B<SPARSE_ARRAY_OF>(B<I<TYPE>>)
   ossl_sa_TYPE_num()           => B<ossl_sa_I<TYPE>_num>()
   TYPE                         => B<I<TYPE>>

There are some other less typical uses where one simply has to give
formatting some extra though.

689c17883a Fix a couple nits in DEFINE_STACK_OF.pod
Only the 'new' variant of sk_TYPE_new_reserve() deals with
compression functions.

Mention both new 'reserve' APIs as being added in OpenSSL 1.1.1.

3ceab379fb Add sk_TYPE_new_reserve() function
This is a combination of sk_new and sk_reserve, to make it more
convenient to allocate a new stack with reserved memory and comaprison
function (if any).

1f5e0f9280 Use safestack.h exclusively internally.
Remove all stack headers from some includes that don't use them.

Avoid a genearic untyped stack use.

Update stack POD file to include the OPENSSL_sk_ API functions in the notes
section.  They were mentioned in the name section but not defined anywhere.

1b3e2bbf64 Add a reserve call to the stack data structure.
This allows the caller to guarantee that there is sufficient space for a
number of insertions without reallocation.

The expansion ratio when reallocating the array is reduced to 1.5 rather than 2.

Change bounds testing to use a single size rather than both INT_MAX and
SIZE_MAX.  This simplifies some of the tests.

Switch the stack pointers to data from char * to void *

e9b7724687 doc/man3: reformat the function prototypes in the synopses
I tried hard to keep the lines at 80 characters or less, but in a few
cases I had to punt and just indented the subsequent lines by 4 spaces.

A few well-placed typedefs for callback functions would really help, but
these would be part of the API, so that's probably for later.

I also took the liberty of inserting empty lines in overlong blocks to
provide some visual space.
