This should make it easier to add the zillion little changes coming.
No content change here beyond a couple of introductory sentences.
Sections have been moved wholesale without editing them.

(Sending to r because of the API change.)
Over time we might want to add support for other key types.
While I was in the code, I also made the use of RawSubject the same
between Subject and Issuer when creating certificates.

(Sending to r because of the API change.)
This change alters the API for crypto/elliptic to permit different
implementations in the future. This will allow us to add faster,
constant-time implementations of the standard curves without any more
API changes.
As a demonstration, it also adds a constant-time implementation of
P224. Since it's only 32-bit, it's actually only about 40% the speed
of the generic code on a 64-bit system.

This allows HTML pages to specify arbitrary data in a header:
<!--{
"Title": "The page title",
...
}-->
replacing the old style comments:
<!-- title The page title -->

Previously, a timeout (in int64 nanoseconds) applied to a granularity
even smaller than one operation: a 100 byte read with a 1 second timeout
could take 100 seconds, if the bytes all arrived on the network 1 second
apart. This was confusing.
Rather than making the timeout granularity be per-Read/Write,
this CL makes callers set an absolute deadline (in time.Time)
after which operations will fail. This makes it possible to
set deadlines at higher levels, without knowing exactly how
many read/write operations will happen in e.g. reading an HTTP
request.
Fixes#2723

This CL is in part a proposal for how to write these sections:
- Brief discussion of change
- No attempt to analyze the thinking about it
- Old code
- New code, runnable if possible
- How to update old programs

No content yet other than titles and an introductory paragraph.
Once this is in, content can arise as separate manageable CLs.
