[ruby/openssl] asn1: refactor converting ASN1_OBJECT to string

ruby/openssl exposes OIDs to Ruby as strings in many places, but the
conversion logic has been duplicated and the behavior is inconsistent.
There are mainly two patterns:

 - Returns the short name associated with the OID/NID, or the dotted
   decimal notation if it is unknown to OpenSSL.
 - Returns the long name, or the dotted decimal notation.

These patterns are implemented using different OpenSSL APIs and that
caused subtle differences. Add helper functions ossl_asn1obj_to_string()
and ossl_asn1obj_to_string_long_name() to unify the logic.

Also, document the current behaviors where it is not yet done. The
inconsistency was likely unintentional, but since it dates back to the
original implementations, standardizing it now would cause more issues
than it resolves.
