This is automatic in CPython but not guaranteed by the language. Be friendly
to other Python implementations.

The storage format comparison has a dual purpose: detect format changes that
lead to a loss of backward compatibility, and detect loss of test coverage.
For loss of backward compatibility, the read tests are the relevant ones.
For loss of test coverage, all generated test cases are potentially
relevant, but this script currently focuses on storage format (where a loss
of test coverage may be a symptom of a loss of backward compatibility).
Therefore, storage format test comparison now looks at manually written
storage format tests, but only if they're read tests.

Expand abi_check.py to look for backward incompatibilities not only in
the interface exposed to application code (and to some extent driver
code), but also to the interface exposed via the storage format, which
is relevant when upgrading Mbed TLS on a device with a PSA keystore.
Strictly speaking, the storage format checks look for regressions in
the automatically generated storage format test data. Incompatible
changes that are not covered by the generated tests will also not be
covered by the interface checker.
A known defect in this commit is that the --brief output is not brief
for storage format checks.

This way we can add other checks and only run a subset of all the
checks. The default remains to run all the checks.
I made separate options for API and ABI, but since we use the same
tool for both and it doesn't have an obvious way to check only API or
only ABI, the two options must be both enabled or both disabled.

Add accessors to mbedtls_ssl_context: user data, version
ABI-API-checking fails which was expected as this PR adds a new field in mbedtls_ssl_context and mbedtls_ssl_config.
Mention that TLS 1.3 is supported, in addition to (D)TLS 1.2.
Improve and clarify the documentation. In particular, emphasise that the
minor version numbers are the internal numbers which are off by one from the
human numbers.

Same intended semantics, no casts.
Limitation: this doesn't work on architectures where
sizeof(uintptr_t) < sizeof(void*), which is somewhat weird but possible if
pointers contain redundant information.

The user data is typically a pointer to a data structure or a handle which
may no longer be valid after the session is restored. If the user data needs
to be preserved, let the application do it. This way, it is a conscious
decision for the application to save/restore either the pointer/handle
itself or the object it refers to.

In structure types that are passed to user callbacks, add a field that the
library won't ever care about. The application can use this field to either
identify an instance of the structure with a handle, or store a pointer to
extra data.
