>Description:
Vast majority of OpenSSL API that has man pages is missing mlinks for them, so, e.g., `man EVP_DigestUpdate' doesn't work, even though it turns up in apropos.
>How-To-Repeat:
% apropos EVP_DigestUpdate
EVP_DigestUpdate (3)    EVP digest routines
% man EVP_DigestUpdate
man: no entry for EVP_DigestUpdate in the manual.

>Fix:
Yes, please!

1. Create the mlinks.
2. Systematize the discovery of what mlinks _should_ be there so if we're missing any it breaks the build.
