Check Unicode string encodings in crypto/asn1. This checks validity for UTF8String, BMPString, and UniversalString. When we detach the core types from ASN1_ITEM, this will likely also be reshuffled around, probably into type-specific functions. But for now just get the checks in place. Update-Note: Invalid strings in X.509 certificates and other ASN.1 structures will now be rejected. This change is less risky than it seems because most strings in X.509 are in X509_NAME, which already rejected invalid instances of these string types (but not other string types) during canonicalization. See https://crbug.com/boringssl/412 for a discussion of that mess.

BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.
Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.
Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.
BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.
Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
