Fold EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp and EC_GROUP_set_generator into a EC_GROUP_new_arbitrary. This is only for Conscrypt which always calls the pair in succession. (Indeed it wouldn't make any sense to not call it.) Remove those two APIs and replace with a single merged API. This way incomplete EC_GROUPs never escape outside our API boundary and EC_GROUPs may *finally* be made immutable. Also add a test for this to make sure I didn't mess it up. Add a temporary BORINGSSL_201512 define to ease the transition for Conscrypt. Conscrypt requires https://android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/187801/ before picking up this change.

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.
