CryptoPkg: BaseCryptLib: support free(NULL)

The ISO C standard says about free(),

  If ptr is a null pointer, no action occurs.

This is not true of the FreePool() interface of the MemoryAllocationLib
class:

  Buffer must have been allocated on a previous call to the pool
  allocation services of the Memory Allocation Library. [...] If Buffer
  was not allocated with a pool allocation function in the Memory
  Allocation Library, then ASSERT().

Therefore we must not forward the argument of free() to FreePool() without
checking.

This bug can be triggered by upstream OpenSSL commit 8e704858f219
("RT3955: Reduce some stack usage"), for example.
