The following series of patches implement a built-in
provider for interfacing OpenSSL 3.0 when external 
keys are in use.

Essentially, to intercept the sign operation, the SSL_CTX
object has to be created with properties string set to 
prioritize our provider. In the provider we implement
only keymgmt and signature operations and specify the
property string as optional. That allows all operations
we do not provide to be used from the default provider.

This patch set stops at interfacing the provider with
management-external-key. For pkcs11-helper, only some glue
code is needed and is in the works. Same with cryptoapicert
 aka CNG, but I want to cleanup the old code a bit before
hooking to the provider.

I haven't attempted to remove any of the deprecated interfaces.
That is better done along with Arne's patches. There will be
only minor, if at all any, conflicts between that and this 
patch set.
