Rename deprecated FIPS_rand functions to FIPS_x931. These shouldn't be
used by applications directly and the X9.31 PRNG is deprecated by new FIPS140-2 rules anyway.

Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
+ This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
+ shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
+ anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
+ [Steve Henson]
+
*) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
instantiate at maximum supported strength.
