Honor SSL_TLSEXT_ERR_ALERT_FATAL in the ALPN callback.

This aligns with OpenSSL's behavior. RFC7301 says servers should return
no_application_protocol if the client supported ALPN but no common
protocol was found. We currently interpret all values as
SSL_TLSEXT_ERR_NOACK. Instead, implement both modes and give guidance on
whne to use each. (NOACK is still useful because the callback may be
shared across multiple configurations, some of which don't support ALPN
at all. Those would want to return NOACK to ignore the list.)

To match upstream, I've also switched SSL_R_MISSING_ALPN, added for
QUIC, to SSL_R_NO_APPLICATION_PROTOCOL.

Update-Note: Callers that return SSL_TLSEXT_ERR_ALERT_FATAL from the
ALPN callback will change behavior. The old behavior may be restored by
returning SSL_TLSEXT_ERR_NOACK, though see the documentation for new
recommendations on return values.

BoringSSL

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.
