Define CBS/CBB tags as uint32_t with a typedef. We use unsigned, but we actually assume it is 32-bit for the bit-packing strategy. But also introduce a typedef to hint that callers shouldn't treat it as an arbitrary 32-bit integer. A typedef would also allow us to extend to uint64_t in the future, if we ever need to. Update-Note: Some APIs switch from unsigned * to uint32_t * out pointers. This is only source-compatible if unsigned and uint32_t are the exact same type. The CQ suggests this is indeed true. If they are not, replace unsigned with CBS_ASN1_TAG to fix the build.

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.
