The documentation for BN_add and related functions did not explicitly state that the ctx parameter cannot be NULL. Users may assume NULL is acceptable since some other OpenSSL functions allow it, but passing NULL to functions like BN_mod_add() or BN_mod() causes a crash. Update the documentation to explicitly state that ctx must not be NULL.
