The gcrypt definition of `bn_new` used to use the return statement on errors, with an AVERROR return value, regardless of the signature of the function where the macro is used - it is called in `dh_generate_key` and `ff_dh_init` which return pointers. As a result, compiling with gcrypt and the ffrtmpcrypt protocol resulted in an int-conversion warning. GCC 14 may upgrade these to errors [1]. This patch fixes the problem by changing the macro to remove `AVERROR` and instead set `bn` to null if the allocation fails. This is the behaviour of all the other `bn_new` implementations and so the result is already checked at all the callsites. AFAICT, this should be the only change needed to get ffmpeg off Fedora's naughty list of projects with warnings which may be upgraded to errors in GCC 14 [2].
