Add APIs for checking ASN.1 INTEGERs. We have several implementations of this internally, so consolidate them. Chromium also has a copy in net/der/parse_values.cc which could call into this. (I'm also hoping we can make c2i_ASN1_INTEGER call this and further tighten up crypto/asn1's parser, but I see Chromium still has an allow_invalid_serial_numbers option, so perhaps not quite yet.) Update-Note: This CL does not change behavior, but I'm leaving a note to myself to make net/der/parse_values.cc call the new functions.

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.
