Rework the documentation of our individual MAC implementations
We now describe parameters instead of controls. Also, since macros like EVP_MAC_CMAC do not exist any more, we rename the pod files from EVP_MAC_{algo}.pod to EVP_MAC-{algo}.pod. This allows getting the documentation like this: man EVP_MAC CMAC [skip ci] Fixes #9709 Reviewed-by: Shane Lontis <shane.lontis@oracle.com> (Merged from https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/9713)

+=head1 NAME
+
+EVP_MAC-Poly1305 - The Poly1305 EVP_MAC implementation
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Support for computing Poly1305 MACs through the B<EVP_MAC> API.
+
+=head2 Identity
+
+This implementation is identified with this name and properties, to be
+used with EVP_MAC_fetch():
+
+=over 4
+
+=item "Poly1305", "default=yes"
+
+=back
+
+=head2 Supported parameters
+
+The general description of these parameters can be found in
+L<EVP_MAC(3)/PARAMETER NAMES>.
+
+The following parameter can be set with EVP_MAC_CTX_set_params():
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<OSSL_MAC_PARAM_KEY> ("key") <octet string>
+
+=back
+
+The following parameters can be retrieved with
+EVP_MAC_CTX_get_params():
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<OSSL_MAC_PARAM_SIZE> ("size") <unsigned int>
+
+=back
+
+The "size" parameter can also be retrieved with with EVP_MAC_size().
