ASN1_STRING_new() returns an allocated ASN1_STRING structure. Its type is undefined.

       ASN1_STRING_type_new() returns an allocated ASN1_STRING structure of type type.

       ASN1_STRING_free() frees up a.  If a is NULL nothing is done.

       ASN1_STRING_new, ASN1_STRING_type_new, ASN1_STRING_free - ASN1_STRING allocation functions

       Other string types call the ASN1_STRING functions. For example ASN1_OCTET_STRING_new() calls
       ASN1_STRING_type_new(V_ASN1_OCTET_STRING).

ASN1_STRING_new() and ASN1_STRING_type_new() return a valid ASN1_STRING structure or NULL if an error
       occurred.

       ASN1_STRING_free() does not return a value.
