EVP Signing and Verifying

There are two APIs available for performing sign and verify operations. The older EVP_Sign* and EVP_Verify* functions, and the newer and more flexible EVP_DigestSign* and EVP_DigestVerify* functions. Though the APIs are similar, new applications should use the EVP_DigestSign* and EVP_DigestVerify* functions.

The examples below use the new EVP_DigestSign* and EVP_DigestVerify* functions.

Editor's note: the examples were removed because they don't work. Stand by...
