Reimplement ASN1_get_object with CBS. Now we only have one BER/DER TLV parser. Annoyingly, this uses the CBS BER function, not the DER one. This is because Android sometimes needs allow a non-minimal length in certificate signature fields (see b/18228011). For now, this CL calls CBS_get_any_ber_asn1_element. This is still an improvement over the old parser because we'll reject non-minimal tags (which are actually even forbidden in BER). Later, we should move the special case to just the signature field, and ultimately to a preprocessing step specific to that part of Android. Update-Note: Invalid certificates (and the few external structures using asn1t.h) with incorrectly-encoded tags will now be rejected.

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.
