commit 67567b221bd06aca1719c926fadc5ce1a0452e9a

    X509_cmp_time: only return 1, 0, -1.
    
    The behaviour of X509_cmp_time used to be undocumented.
    
    The new behaviour, documented in master, is to return only 0, 1, or -1.
    Make the code in the other branches to adhere to this behaviour too,
    to reduce confusion. There is nothing to be gained from returning
    other values.
    
    Fixes GH#4954
