Context:
The CID draft does not require that the length of CIDs used for incoming
records must not change in the course of a connection. Since the record
header does not contain a length field for the CID, this means that if
CIDs of varying lengths are used, the CID length must be inferred from
other aspects of the record header (such as the epoch) and/or by means
outside of the protocol, e.g. by coding its length in the CID itself.
Inferring the CID length from the record's epoch is theoretically possible
in DTLS 1.2, but it requires the information about the epoch to be present
even if the epoch is no longer used: That's because one should silently drop
records from old epochs, but not the entire datagrams to which they belong
(there might be entire flights in a single datagram, including a change of
epoch); however, in order to do so, one needs to parse the record's content
length, the position of which is only known once the CID length for the epoch
is known. In conclusion, it puts a significant burden on the implementation
to infer the CID length from the record epoch, which moreover mangles record
processing with the high-level logic of the protocol (determining which epochs
are in use in which flights, when they are changed, etc. -- this would normally
determine when we drop epochs).
Moreover, with DTLS 1.3, CIDs are no longer uniquely associated to epochs,
but every epoch may use a set of CIDs of varying lengths -- in that case,
it's even theoretically impossible to do record header parsing based on
the epoch configuration only.
We must therefore seek a way for standalone record header parsing, which
means that we must either (a) fix the CID lengths for incoming records,
or (b) allow the application-code to configure a callback to implement
an application-specific CID parsing which would somehow infer the length
of the CID from the CID itself.
Supporting multiple lengths for incoming CIDs significantly increases
complexity while, on the other hand, the restriction to a fixed CID length
for incoming CIDs (which the application controls - in contrast to the
lengths of the CIDs used when writing messages to the peer) doesn't
appear to severely limit the usefulness of the CID extension.
Therefore, the initial implementation of the CID feature will require
a fixed length for incoming CIDs, which is what this commit enforces,
in the following way:
In order to avoid a change of API in case support for variable lengths
CIDs shall be added at some point, we keep mbedtls_ssl_set_cid(), which
includes a CID length parameter, but add a new API mbedtls_ssl_conf_cid_len()
which applies to an SSL configuration, and which fixes the CID length that
any call to mbetls_ssl_set_cid() which applies to an SSL context that is bound
to the given SSL configuration must use.
While this creates a slight redundancy of parameters, it allows to
potentially add an API like mbedtls_ssl_conf_cid_len_cb() later which
could allow users to register a callback which dynamically infers the
length of a CID at record header parsing time, without changing the
rest of the API.

Mbed Crypto tests that depend on private headers, like
'psa_crypto_invasive.h'.

So far, `ssl_client2` printed the CRT info for the peer's CRT
by requesting the latter through `mbedtls_ssl_get_peer_cert()`
at the end of the handshake, and printing it via
`mbedtls_x509_crt_info()`. When `MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE`
is disabled, this does no longer work because the peer's CRT
isn't stored beyond the handshake.
This makes some tests in `ssl-opt.sh` fail which rely on the CRT
info output for the peer certificate.
This commit modifies `ssl_client2` to extract the peer CRT info
from the verification callback, which is always called at a time
when the peer's CRT is available. This way, the peer's CRT info
is still printed if `MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE` is disabled.
Additional work done as part of merge:
- Run ./tests/scripts/check-generated-files.sh and check in the
resulting changes to programs/ssl/query_config.c
This commit improves hygiene and formatting of macro definitions
throughout the library. Specifically:
- It adds brackets around parameters to avoid unintended
interpretation of arguments, e.g. due to operator precedence.
- It adds uses of the `do { ... } while( 0 )` idiom for macros that
can be used as commands.
