Deprecate unprefixed manual entries for openssl commands

Initially, the manual page entry for the 'openssl cmd' command used
to be available at 'cmd(1)'. Later, the aliases 'openssl-cmd(1)' was
introduced, which made it easier to group the openssl commands using
the 'apropos(1)' command or the shell's tab completion.

In order to reduce cluttering of the global manual page namespace,
the manual page entries without the 'openssl-' prefix have been
deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0 and will be removed in OpenSSL 4.0.

-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-The B<ec> command processes EC keys. They can be converted between various
-forms and their components printed out. B<Note> OpenSSL uses the
-private key format specified in 'SEC 1: Elliptic Curve Cryptography'
-(http://www.secg.org/). To convert an OpenSSL EC private key into the
-PKCS#8 private key format use the B<pkcs8> command.
-
-=head1 OPTIONS
-
-=over 4
-
-=item B<-help>
-
-Print out a usage message.
-
-=item B<-inform DER|PEM>
-
-This specifies the input format. The B<DER> option with a private key uses
-an ASN.1 DER encoded SEC1 private key. When used with a public key it
-uses the SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure as specified in RFC 3280.
-The B<PEM> form is the default format: it consists of the B<DER> format base64
-encoded with additional header and footer lines. In the case of a private key
-PKCS#8 format is also accepted.
-
-=item B<-outform DER|PEM>
-
-This specifies the output format, the options have the same meaning and default
-as the B<-inform> option.
-
-=item B<-in filename>
-
-This specifies the input filename to read a key from or standard input if this
-option is not specified. If the key is encrypted a pass phrase will be
-prompted for.
-
-=item B<-passin arg>
-
-The input file password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
-see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)>.
-
-=item B<-out filename>
-
-This specifies the output filename to write a key to or standard output by
-is not specified. If any encryption options are set then a pass phrase will be
-prompted for. The output filename should B<not> be the same as the input
-filename.
-
-=item B<-passout arg>
-
-The output file password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
-see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)>.
-
-=item B<-des|-des3|-idea>
-
-These options encrypt the private key with the DES, triple DES, IDEA or
-any other cipher supported by OpenSSL before outputting it. A pass phrase is
-prompted for.
-If none of these options is specified the key is written in plain text. This
-means that using the B<ec> utility to read in an encrypted key with no
-encryption option can be used to remove the pass phrase from a key, or by
-setting the encryption options it can be use to add or change the pass phrase.
-These options can only be used with PEM format output files.
-
-=item B<-text>
-
-Prints out the public, private key components and parameters.
-
-=item B<-noout>
-
-This option prevents output of the encoded version of the key.
-
-=item B<-pubin>
-
-By default, a private key is read from the input file. With this option a
-public key is read instead.
-
-=item B<-pubout>
-
-By default a private key is output. With this option a public
-key will be output instead. This option is automatically set if the input is
-a public key.
-
-=item B<-conv_form>
-
-This specifies how the points on the elliptic curve are converted
-into octet strings. Possible values are: B<compressed> (the default
-value), B<uncompressed> and B<hybrid>. For more information regarding
-the point conversion forms please read the X9.62 standard.
-B<Note> Due to patent issues the B<compressed> option is disabled
-by default for binary curves and can be enabled by defining
-the preprocessor macro B<OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP> at compile time.
-
-=item B<-param_enc arg>
-
-This specifies how the elliptic curve parameters are encoded.
-Possible value are: B<named_curve>, i.e. the ec parameters are
-specified by an OID, or B<explicit> where the ec parameters are
-explicitly given (see RFC 3279 for the definition of the
-EC parameters structures). The default value is B<named_curve>.
-B<Note> the B<implicitlyCA> alternative, as specified in RFC 3279,
-is currently not implemented in OpenSSL.
-
-=item B<-no_public>
-
-This option omits the public key components from the private key output.
-
-=item B<-check>
-
-This option checks the consistency of an EC private or public key.
-
-=item B<-engine id>
-
-Specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<ec>
-to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
-thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default
-for all available algorithms.

-=head1 NOTES
-
-The PEM private key format uses the header and footer lines:
-
- -----BEGIN EC PRIVATE KEY-----
- -----END EC PRIVATE KEY-----
-
-The PEM public key format uses the header and footer lines:
-
- -----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----
- -----END PUBLIC KEY-----
-
-=head1 EXAMPLES
-
-To encrypt a private key using triple DES:
-
- openssl ec -in key.pem -des3 -out keyout.pem
-
-To convert a private key from PEM to DER format:
-
- openssl ec -in key.pem -outform DER -out keyout.der
-
-To print out the components of a private key to standard output:
-
- openssl ec -in key.pem -text -noout
-
-To just output the public part of a private key:
-
- openssl ec -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
-
-To change the parameters encoding to B<explicit>:
-
- openssl ec -in key.pem -param_enc explicit -out keyout.pem
-
-To change the point conversion form to B<compressed>:
-
- openssl ec -in key.pem -conv_form compressed -out keyout.pem
