[erlang-patches] TLS: add PSK and SRP cipher suites

Hi,

I have address the issues:

 * documentation for SSL API options added
 * header files internalized
 * crypto function generalized and support for multiple SRP variants

New version can be found here:

https://github.com/RoadRunnr/otp/compare/master...tls-psk-srp-suites
https://github.com/RoadRunnr/otp/compare/master...tls-psk-srp-suites.patch


Even if the PSK and SRP do not make it into R16, could you consider the first two
changesets from this series, please? They are mostly code consolidations, making
adding new key exchange algorithms much simpler.
