Improve the formatting and writing of the documentation based on what
had been done for CTR_DRBG.
Document the maximum size and nullability of some buffer parameters.
Document that a derivation function is used.
Document the security strength of the DRBG depending on the
compile-time configuration and how it is set up. In particular,
document how the nonce specified in SP 800-90A is set.
Mention how to link the ctr_drbg module with the entropy module.
* State explicit whether several numbers are in bits or bytes.
* Clarify whether buffer pointer parameters can be NULL.
* Explain the value of constants that are dependent on the configuration.
* origin/pr/2843: (26 commits)

Add invasive checks that peek at the stored persistent data after some
successful import, generation or destruction operations and after
reinitialization to ensure that the persistent data in storage has the
expected content.
Add a parameter to the p_validate_slot_number method to allow the
driver to modify the persistent data.
With the current structure of the core, the persistent data is already
updated. All it took was adding a way to modify it.
When registering a key in a secure element, go through the transaction
mechanism. This makes the code simpler, at the expense of a few extra
storage operations. Given that registering a key is typically very
rare over the lifetime of a device, this is an acceptable loss.
Drivers must now have a p_validate_slot_number method, otherwise
registering a key is not possible. This reduces the risk that due to a
mistake during the integration of a device, an application might claim
a slot in a way that is not supported by the driver.
Since components run in the main process, unsetting
MBEDTLS_TEST_OUTCOME_FILE unset it in subsequent components as well.
To avoid this, save and restore the value.
(Making each component run in a subshell would be a better solution,
but it would be a much bigger change.)
Define a vendor-range within the the private use ranges in the IANA
registry. Provide recommendations for how to support vendor-defined
curves and groups.
Fix copypasta in some test cases with
MBEDTLS_TLS_DEFAULT_ALLOW_SHA1_IN_CERTIFICATES enabled.
Add unique suffix to the two
"DTLS fragmenting: proxy MTU: auto-reduction" test cases.
This is testing with $kex, not without $kex, so use $kex, not "-$kex".
In test-ref-configs.pl, use $conf rather than "$conf". This is purely
a matter of Perl coding style.
