Require the public exponent to be available in RSA blinding.
Require the public exponent to be available unless
|RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING| is set on the key. Also, document this.
If the public exponent |e| is not available, then we could compute it
from |p|, |q|, and |d|. However, there's no reasonable situation in
which we'd have |p| or |q| but not |e|; either we have all the CRT
parameters, or we have (e, d, n), or we have only (d, n). The
calculation to compute |e| exposes the private key to risk of side
channel attacks.
Also, it was particularly wasteful to compute |e| for each
|BN_BLINDING| created, instead of just once before the first
|BN_BLINDING| was created.
|BN_BLINDING| now no longer needs to contain a duplicate copy of |e|,
so it is now more space-efficient.
Note that the condition |b->e != NULL| in |bn_blinding_update| was
always true since commit cbf56a5.
