X509_time_adj_ex() sets the ASN1_TIME structure B<asn1_time> to the time
B<offset_day> and B<offset_sec> after B<in_tm>.

X509_time_adj() sets the ASN1_TIME structure I<asn1_time> to the time
I<offset_sec> after I<in_tm>. This method can only handle second

API should be preferred.

In all methods, if I<in_tm> is NULL, the current time, expressed as

B<asn1_time> must satisfy the ASN1_TIME format mandated by RFC 5280,
I<asn1_time> must satisfy the ASN1_TIME format mandated by RFC 5280,
i.e., its format must be either YYMMDDHHMMSSZ or YYYYMMDDHHMMSSZ.
X509_gmtime_adj() sets the ASN1_TIME structure I<asn1_time> to the time
I<offset_sec> after the current time. It is equivalent to calling
X509_time_adj() with the last parameter as NULL.
