Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is >0, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

NAME
EVP_PKEY2PKCS8, EVP_PKCS82PKEY_ex, EVP_PKCS82PKEY \- Convert a private key to/from PKCS8
SYNOPSIS
Header "SYNOPSIS" .Vb 1 #include <openssl/x509.h> \& PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO *EVP_PKEY2PKCS8(const EVP_PKEY *pkey); EVP_PKEY *EVP_PKCS82PKEY(const PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO *p8); EVP_PKEY *EVP_PKCS82PKEY_ex(const PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO *p8, OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx, const char *propq); .Ve
DESCRIPTION
Header "DESCRIPTION" \fBEVP_PKEY2PKCS8() converts a private key pkey into a returned PKCS8 object.

\fBEVP_PKCS82PKEY_ex() converts a PKCS8 object p8 into a returned private key. It uses libctx and propq when fetching algorithms.

\fBEVP_PKCS82PKEY() is similar to EVP_PKCS82PKEY_ex() but uses default values of NULL for the libctx and propq.

"RETURN VALUES"
Header "RETURN VALUES" \fBEVP_PKEY2PKCS8() returns a PKCS8 object on success. \fBEVP_PKCS82PKEY() and EVP_PKCS82PKEY_ex() return a private key on success.

All functions return NULL if the operation fails.
