Also update for new stream cipher key schedule function name and new directory for base class decl.

* Use TR1 by default with GNU C++ and Intel C++, since all recent versions oflloyd2008-11-171-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | both support TR1 fine AFAICT. Add ability to explicitly disable using TR1 with --with-tr1=none Add a marker in the cc info files specifiying if TR1 should be chosen by default. Yes, autoconf would be better for this than a static per-compiler setting. Yes, I totally hate autoconf. Yes, I would still consider autoconf patches. No, I'm not going to do it myself. :) I am looking forward to being able to safely adopt C++0x and TR2 throughout the library and make the need for a lot of this special-casing stuff go away. Until then, it seems better to defaulting to using tr1 (and thus, ECC) than not.

* Update the manual a bit, though really mostly this was deleting thingslloyd2008-11-171-643/+128
| | | | | | | that were inaccurate or no longer relevant. For instance the documentation on how to remove algorithms gave the painful nasty manual way that was the only method in Botan 1.6, however in 1.7/1.8 it is trivial to disable algorithms from the build using --disable-module.

* Remove support for provider identifiers from SCAN_Name - it turns out thislloyd2008-11-121-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | was not the right place to keep track of this information. Also modify all Algorithm_Factory constructor functions to take instead of a SCAN_Name a pair of std::strings - the SCAN name and an optional provider name. If a provider is specified, either that provider will be used or the request will fail. Otherwise, the library will attempt best effort, based on user-set algorithm implementation settings (combine with benchmark.h for choosing the fastest implementation at runtime) or if not set, a static ordering (preset in static_provider_weight in prov_weight.cpp, though it would be nice to make this easier to toggle).

* Drop use of entropy estimation in Randpool for the same reason as HMAC_RNG.lloyd2008-11-111-0/+1
| | | | | | As with HMAC_RNG, instead assume one bit of conditional entropy per byte of polled material. Since they are no longer used, drop the entropy estimation routines entirely.

| | | | | | | | | | | | out of tree builds. Also rename the generated botan-config script so that it is, like the pkg-config settings, namespaced by the major and minor version numbers (eg, botan-17-config). This is useful in particular for distros like Debian which ship both stable and unstable versions. Currently Debian is actually the only distro I know of shipping 1.7 as well as 1.6, but I would certainly like to encourage more in the future by making it easy to do.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new class AutoSeeded_RNG that is a RandomNumberGenerator that wraps up the logic formerly in RandomNumberGenerator::make_rng. make_rng in fact now just returns a new AutoSeeded_RNG object. AutoSeeded_RNG is a bit more convenient because - No need to use auto_ptr - No need to dereference (same syntax everywhere - it's an underestimated advantage imo) Also move the code from timer/timer_base to timer/
