cryptohash_openssl.c initialized the EVP_MD_CTX with the implicit static digest objects (EVP_sha256() and friends). These do not dispatch through a loaded provider. OpenSSL 3.0 and newer versions recommend to switch to an explicit fetch, using EVP_MD_fetch(), the older routines being deprecated, available for backward-compatibility purposes. Now, when building with OpenSSL 3.0 or a newer bersion, we fetch the digest by name with EVP_MD_fetch(), cache it in the context, and free it on teardown. This has as consequence to feed the hash from a provider. The implicit path is kept for older OpenSSL, 1.1.1 being the oldest version still supported on HEAD, and for LibreSSL. This is a slight change in the hashing logic. No backpatch is done as that looks safer, and the code in the back-branches is also able to work. This has been locally tested across OpenSSL 1.1.1 up to 3.5, so hopefully nothing is broken. Note: The submitted code was clearly AI-generated. I have spend a bit of time cleaning it up, making it more consistent with the project style in terms of coding, adjusting a few more things on the way.
