According to the documentation (I haven't tested it yet but will) I think you
are right that the type should be set with the appropriate BIO_TYPE_ flags.

For OpenSSL 1.0.1 and 1.0.2, wouldn't we need to set the .type with a randomly
chosen index anded with BIO_TYPE_DESCRIPTOR and BIO_TYPE_SOURCE_SINK as well?
