Pierre Pronchery b077aed33b Merge OpenSSL 3.0.9
Migrate to OpenSSL 3.0 in advance of FreeBSD 14.0.  OpenSSL 1.1.1 (the
version we were previously using) will be EOL as of 2023-09-11.

Most of the base system has already been updated for a seamless switch
to OpenSSL 3.0.  For many components we've added
`-DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L` to CFLAGS to specify the API version,
which avoids deprecation warnings from OpenSSL 3.0.  Changes have also
been made to avoid OpenSSL APIs that were already deprecated in OpenSSL
1.1.1.  The process of updating to contemporary APIs can continue after
this merge.

Additional changes are still required for libarchive and Kerberos-
related libraries or tools; workarounds will immediately follow this
commit.  Fixes are in progress in the upstream projects and will be
incorporated when those are next updated.

There are some performance regressions in benchmarks (certain tests in
`openssl speed`) and in some OpenSSL consumers in ports (e.g.  haproxy).
Investigation will continue for these.

Netflix's testing showed no functional regression and a rather small,
albeit statistically significant, increase in CPU consumption with
OpenSSL 3.0.

Thanks to ngie@ and des@ for updating base system components, to
antoine@ and bofh@ for ports exp-runs and port fixes/workarounds, and to
Netflix and everyone who tested prior to commit or contributed to this
update in other ways.

=head1 NAME
RSA-PSS - EVP_PKEY RSA-PSS algorithm support
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The B<RSA-PSS> EVP_PKEY implementation is a restricted version of the RSA
algorithm which only supports signing, verification and key generation
using PSS padding modes with optional parameter restrictions.
It has associated private key and public key formats.
This algorithm shares several control operations with the B<RSA> algorithm
but with some restrictions described below.
=head2 Signing and Verification
Signing and verification is similar to the B<RSA> algorithm except the
padding mode is always PSS. If the key in use has parameter restrictions then
the corresponding signature parameters are set to the restrictions:
for example, if the key can only be used with digest SHA256, MGF1 SHA256
and minimum salt length 32 then the digest, MGF1 digest and salt length
will be set to SHA256, SHA256 and 32 respectively.
=head2 Key Generation
By default no parameter restrictions are placed on the generated key.
=head1 NOTES
The public key format is documented in RFC4055.
The PKCS#8 private key format used for RSA-PSS keys is similar to the RSA
format except it uses the B<id-RSASSA-PSS> OID and the parameters field, if
present, restricts the key parameters in the same way as the public key.
