Fix documented function return types
The documented return type of the (incorrectly named; see below) OSSL_FUNC_decoder_export_object function signature is wrong; the correct type is int, due to the following line in core_dispatch.h:
OSSL_CORE_MAKE_FUNC(int, decoder_export_object,
Fixes #19543
Per the Github conversation with levitte and t8m for pull request #19964, the following issues are not addressed by this patch:
The macro OSSL_CORE_MAKE_FUNC in core_dispatch.h generates a function, and a corresponding function signature typedef with name ending in "_fn". The typedefed signature is unrelated to the signature of the function.
However, provider-decoder.pod describes typedefed signatures generated by the macro, but uses the names of the functions (lacking "_fn") instead of the typedefed signatures, which is a mismatch.
Also, the documented claim about OSSL_FUNC_decoder_export_object, etc that "None of these are actual functions" is contradicted by the fact that the code actually calls those functions, and calls them specifically by those names. E.g. in decoder_meth.c:
decoder->export_object = OSSL_FUNC_decoder_export_object(fns);
The functions are generated by OSSL_CORE_MAKE_FUNC.
The paragraph "None of these are actual functions"... should be replaced by something more like "These function signatures, generated by the OSSL_CORE_MAKE_FUNC macro, are for functions that are offered via function pointers in OSSL_DISPATCH arrays."
