When using OpenSSL and/or the underlying operating system in FIPS
mode no non-FIPS certified crypto implementations should be used.
While that is already possible by just not invoking the built-in
crypto in pgcrypto, this adds a GUC which prohibit the code from
being called. This doesn't change the FIPS status of PostgreSQL
but can make it easier for sites which target FIPS compliance to
ensure that violations cannot occur.

Certain short salts crashed the backend or disclosed a few bytes of
backend memory. For existing salt-induced error conditions, emit a
message saying as much. Back-patch to 9.0 (all supported versions).
