Enable handling of zero-length null output in PKCS1 v1.5 decryption.
Prevent undefined behavior by avoiding a memcpy() to zero-length null
output buffers.
In mbedtls_rsa_rsaes_oaep_encrypt and
mbedtls_rsa_rsaes_pkcs1_v15_encrypt, if the input length is 0 (which
is unusual and mostly useless, but permitted) then it is fine for the
input pointer to be NULL. Don't return an error in this case.
When `input` is NULL, `memcpy( p, input, ilen )` has undefined behavior
even if `ilen` is zero. So skip the `memcpy` call in this case.
Likewise, in `mbedtls_rsa_rsaes_oaep_decrypt`, skip the `memcpy` call if
`*olen` is zero.
Context: During a handshake, the SSL/TLS handshake logic constructs
an instance of ::mbedtls_ssl_session representing the SSL session
being established. This structure contains information such as the
session's master secret, the peer certificate, or the session ticket
issues by the server (if applicable).
During a renegotiation, the new session is constructed aside the existing
one and destroys and replaces the latter only when the renegotiation is
complete. While conceptually clear, this means that during the renegotiation,
large pieces of information such as the peer's CRT or the session ticket
exist twice in memory, even though the original versions are removed
eventually.
This commit removes the simultaneous presence of two peer CRT chains
in memory during renegotiation, in the following way:
- Unlike in the case of SessionTickets handled in the previous commit,
we cannot simply free the peer's CRT chain from the previous handshake
before parsing the new one, as we need to verify that the peer's end-CRT
hasn't changed to mitigate the 'Triple Handshake Attack'.
- Instead, we perform a binary comparison of the original peer end-CRT
with the one presented during renegotiation, and if it succeeds, we
avoid re-parsing CRT by moving the corresponding CRT pointer from the
old to the new session structure.
- The remaining CRTs in the peer's chain are not affected by the triple
handshake attack protection, and for them we may employ the canonical
approach of freeing them before parsing the remainder of the new chain.
Note that this commit intends to not change any observable behavior
of the stack. In particular:
- The peer's CRT chain is still verified during renegotiation.
- The tail of the peer's CRT chain may change during renegotiation.

This commit starts removing this memory inefficiency by freeing the old
session's SessionTicket before the one for the new session is allocated.
The existing test `x509parse_crt()` for X.509 CRT parsing
so far used the generic parsing API `mbedtls_x509_crt_parse()`
capable of parsing both PEM encoded and DER encoded certficates,
but was actually only used with DER encoded input data. Moreover,
as the purpose of the test is the testing of the core DER X.509 parsing
functionality, not the PEM vs. DER dispatch (which is now already tested
in the various `x509_crt_info()` tests), the call can be replaced with a
direct call to `mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der()`.
This commit does that, and further adds to the test an analogous
call to the new API `mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der_nocopy()` to test
copyless parsing of X.509 certificates.
Context:
The existing API `mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der()` for parsing DER
encoded X.509 CRTs unconditionally makes creates a copy of the
input buffer in RAM. While this comes at the benefit of easy use,
-- specifically: allowing the user to free or re-use the input
buffer right after the call -- it creates a significant memory
overhead, as the CRT is duplicated in memory (at least temporarily).
This might not be tolerable a resource constrained device.
As a remedy, this commit adds a new X.509 API call
`mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der_nocopy()`
which has the same signature as `mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der()`
and almost the same semantics, with one difference: The input
buffer must persist and be unmodified for the lifetime of the
established instance of `mbedtls_x509_crt`, that is, until
`mbedtls_x509_crt_free()` is called.
Resolve incompatibilties in the RSA module where changes made for
parameter validation prevent Mbed Crypto from working. Mbed Crypto
depends on being able to pass zero-length buffers that are NULL to RSA
encryption functions.
This reverts commit 2f660d047d.
