DESCRIPTION
       These functions implement RSA public key encryption and signatures as
       defined in PKCS #1 v2.0 [RFC 2437].
       The RSA structure consists of several BIGNUM components. It can contain
       public as well as private RSA keys:
        struct
               {
               BIGNUM *n;              // public modulus
               BIGNUM *e;              // public exponent
               BIGNUM *d;              // private exponent
               BIGNUM *p;              // secret prime factor
               BIGNUM *q;              // secret prime factor
               BIGNUM *dmp1;           // d mod (p-1)
               BIGNUM *dmq1;           // d mod (q-1)
               BIGNUM *iqmp;           // q^-1 mod p
               // ...
               };
        RSA
       In public keys, the private exponent and the related secret values are
       NULL.
       p, q, dmp1, dmq1 and iqmp may be NULL in private keys, but the RSA
       operations are much faster when these values are available.
       Note that RSA keys may use non-standard RSA_METHOD implementations,
       either directly or by the use of ENGINE modules. In some cases (eg. an
       ENGINE providing support for hardware-embedded keys), these BIGNUM
       values will not be used by the implementation or may be used for
       alternative data storage. For this reason, applications should
       generally avoid using RSA structure elements directly and instead use
       API functions to query or modify keys.
