Reject negative numbers in BN_{mod_mul,to,from}_montgomery.
These functions already require their inputs to be reduced mod N (or, in
some cases, bounded by R or N*R), so negative numbers are nonsense. The
code still attempted to account for them by working on the absolute
value and fiddling with the sign bit. (The output would be in range (-N,
N) instead of [0, N).)
This complicates relaxing bn_correct_top because bn_correct_top is also
used to prevent storing a negative zero. Instead, just reject negative
inputs.
Upgrade-Note: These functions are public API, so some callers may
notice. Code search suggests there is only one caller outside
BoringSSL, and it looks fine.

BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.
Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.
Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.
BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.
Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
