Add OSSL_PARAM_dup() and OSSL_PARAM_merge().
These functions are prerequisites for implementing EVP_PKEY_todata().
OSSL_PARAM_dup() is required to make a deep copy of the exported
params (since the provider export() uses a OSSL_PARAM_BLD which throws away the
data after the call), and then use OSSL_PARAM_merge() to add some additional params
that can be passed to the EVP_PKEY_todata().

The following utility functions allow the parameters to be +duplicated and merged with other B<OSSL_PARAM> to assist in this process. + +OSSL_PARAM_dup() duplicates the parameter array I<params>. This function does a +deep copy of the data. + +OSSL_PARAM_merge() merges the parameter arrays I<params> and I<params1> into a +new parameter array. If I<params> and I<params1> contain values with the same +'key' then the value from I<params1> will replace the I<param> value. This +function does a shallow copy of the parameters. Either I<params> or I<params1> +may be NULL. The behaviour of the merge is unpredictable if I<params> and +I<params1> contain the same key, and there are multiple entries within either +array that have the same key. + +OSSL_PARAM_free() frees the parameter array I<params> that was created using +OSSL_PARAM_dup(), OSSL_PARAM_merge() or OSSL_PARAM_BLD_to_param(). + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +The functions OSSL_PARAM_dup() and OSSL_PARAM_merge() return a newly allocated +B<OSSL_PARAM> array, or NULL if there was an error.
