Add tests for EC keys with specified curves. In c0d948490288b91dbaa16f691f4f29a3536ae6e3, we had to add support for recognizing specified versions of named curves. I believe the motivation was an ECPrivateKey encoded by OpenSSL without the EC_KEY's asn1_flag set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE. Annoyingly, it appears OpenSSL's API defaulted to the specified form while the tool defaulted to the named form. Add tests for this at the ECPrivateKey and the PKCS#8 level. The latter was taken from Chromium's ec_private_key_unittest.cc which was the original impetus for this.

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.
