Require configured groups for key exchange to be unique

There is no reason for the list of supported groups for key exchange to
contain duplicates, because a group is either supported or not, and
specifying it multiple times has no additional effect. Also it is a
syntax error on the wire. Allowing duplicates in the SSL_CTX and
SSL_CONFIG members that track this list would create problems because we
will soon require other inputs (explicitly configured client key shares)
to be a subset of the supported groups. This CL requires the groups
configured via SSL_{,CTX_}set1_{groups,group_ids,groups_list} to be
unique.

Update-Note: The setters for supported groups,
SSL_{,CTX_}set1_{groups,group_ids,groups_list} will now fail if the
provided list of groups contains duplicates.

BoringSSL

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.

To file a security issue, use the Chromium process and mention in the report this is for BoringSSL. You can ignore the parts of the process that are specific to Chromium/Chrome.
