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
MDC2, MDC2_Init, MDC2_Update, MDC2_Final - MDC2 hash function
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/mdc2.h>
The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
hidden entirely by defining B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value,
see L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:
unsigned char *MDC2(const unsigned char *d, unsigned long n,
unsigned char *md);
int MDC2_Init(MDC2_CTX *c);
int MDC2_Update(MDC2_CTX *c, const unsigned char *data,
unsigned long len);
int MDC2_Final(unsigned char *md, MDC2_CTX *c);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
Applications should instead use L<EVP_DigestInit_ex(3)>, L<EVP_DigestUpdate(3)>
and L<EVP_DigestFinal_ex(3)>.
MDC2 is a method to construct hash functions with 128 bit output from
block ciphers. These functions are an implementation of MDC2 with
DES.
MDC2() computes the MDC2 message digest of the B<n>
bytes at B<d> and places it in B<md> (which must have space for
MDC2_DIGEST_LENGTH == 16 bytes of output). If B<md> is NULL, the digest
is placed in a static array.
The following functions may be used if the message is not completely
stored in memory:
MDC2_Init() initializes a B<MDC2_CTX> structure.
MDC2_Update() can be called repeatedly with chunks of the message to
be hashed (B<len> bytes at B<data>).
MDC2_Final() places the message digest in B<md>, which must have space
for MDC2_DIGEST_LENGTH == 16 bytes of output, and erases the B<MDC2_CTX>.
Applications should use the higher level functions
L<EVP_DigestInit(3)> etc. instead of calling the
hash functions directly.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
MDC2() returns a pointer to the hash value.
MDC2_Init(), MDC2_Update() and MDC2_Final() return 1 for success, 0 otherwise.
=head1 CONFORMING TO
ISO/IEC 10118-2:2000 Hash-Function 2, with DES as the underlying block cipher.
=head1 SEE ALSO
L<EVP_DigestInit(3)>
=head1 HISTORY
All of these functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
