I've updated the openssl bindings. The module is now built as a static 
module. The module is built when OpenSSL is available and Lua is enabled.

The module currently includes all the functions I needed for writing 
the SSH hostkey script, which are mostly bignum functions. I've also 
added documentation for the included functions.

Any opinions about integrating this into nmap?

Also, we recently added the OpenSSL hash functions
to Nbase.  If we were to put these bindings in, we should probably
deal with the hash functions the same way and remove them from Nbase.

As far as I can tell, the nbase hash functions are used nowhere but in
nse_hash.cc, and there are no scripts that use the hash module that
nse_hash.cc implements. Moving the hash functions into the openssl
module would have no effect on current scripts.
