Add support for async jobs in OpenSSL speed

[Grandi, Andrea]

Hi!

This pull request adds support for async jobs in OpenSSL speed:
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/501


Summary of the changes:

  *   Move the calls to the crypto operations inside wrapper functions.
This is required because ASYNC_start_job() takes a function as an argument.


  *   Add new function run_benchmark() that manages the jobs for all the operations.
In the POSIX case it uses a select() to receive the events from the engine and resume the jobs that are paused, while in the WIN case it uses PeekNamedPipe()


  *   Add new option argument async_jobs to enable and specify the number of async jobs

Example:

openssl speed -engine dasync -elapsed -async_jobs 32 rsa2048


Regards,
Andrea Grandi
