In a previous PR (Fix heap corruption in implementation of truncated HMAC
extension #425) the place where MAC is computed was changed from the end of
the SSL I/O buffer to a local buffer (then (part of) the content of the local
buffer is either copied to the output buffer of compare to the input buffer).
Unfortunately, this change was made only for TLS 1.0 and later, leaving SSL
3.0 in an inconsistent state due to ssl_mac() still writing to the old,
hard-coded location, which, for MAC verification, resulted in later comparing
the end of the input buffer (containing the computed MAC) to the local buffer
(uninitialised), most likely resulting in MAC verification failure, hence no
interop (even with ourselves).
This commit completes the move to using a local buffer by using this strategy
for SSL 3.0 too. Fortunately ssl_mac() was static so it's not a problem to
change its signature.
Port wait_server_start from ssl-opt.sh to compat.sh, instead of just
using "sleep 1". This solves the problem that on a heavily loaded
machine, sleep 1 is sometimes not enough (we had CI failures because
of this). This is also faster on a lightly-loaded machine (execution
time reduced from ~8min to ~6min on my machine).
In wait_server_start, fork less. When lsof is present, call it on the
expected process. This saves a few percent of execution time on a
lightly loaded machine. Also, sleep for a short duration rather than
using a tight loop.
The previous commit reduced the internal header size to 5 bytes in case of
TLS. This is not a valid since in that situation Mbed TLS internally uses the
first 8 bytes of the message buffer for the implicit record sequence number.
Fix missing definition of mbedtls_zeroize when MBEDTLS_FS_IO is
disabled in the configuration.

Previously, MAC validation for an incoming record proceeded as follows:
1) Make a copy of the MAC contained in the record;
2) Compute the expected MAC in place, overwriting the presented one;
3) Compare both.
This resulted in a record buffer overflow if truncated MAC was used, as in this
case the record buffer only reserved 10 bytes for the MAC, but the MAC
computation routine in 2) always wrote a full digest.
For specially crafted records, this could be used to perform a controlled write of
up to 6 bytes past the boundary of the heap buffer holding the record, thereby
corrupting the heap structures and potentially leading to a crash or remote code
execution.
This commit fixes this by making the following change:
1) Compute the expected MAC in a temporary buffer that has the size of the
underlying message digest.
2) Compare to this to the MAC contained in the record, potentially
restricting to the first 10 bytes if truncated HMAC is used.
A similar fix is applied to the encryption routine `ssl_encrypt_buf`.
