Align armv8.pl references to OPENSSL_armcap_P. This imports d741debb320bf54e8575d35603a44d4eb40fa1f9 from upstream. We've been managing the shared libraries already because our arm-xlate.pl automatically adds .hidden to .extern lines, but nice to reduce the diff. (This does result in some duplicate .hidden lines in the generated output, but we still want the arm-xlate.pl patch to automatically hide .globl.) Removing .comm lines does change the generated output, but having each asm file define its own copy of OPENSSL_armcap_P as a common symbol always seemed odd. I recall some weird issue where the armv4.pl files subtly rely on it for iOS's strange .indirect_symbol machinery. (Not actually because iOS wants a common symbol but because arm-xlate.pl repurposes .comm to trigger .indirect_symbol.) Fortunately, aarch64 is much better about PC-relative addressing, so it should be a no-op. The .comm lines have also previously caused weird issues (https://boringssl-review.googlesource.com/c/boringssl/+/32324), so it's generally nice to get rid of them. Update-Note: If aarch64 builds get some weird error about relocations, it's this CL's fault.

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.
