The `crypt` functions defined here conflict with the `crypt` function
defined in `unistd.h` and trigger compilation errors when building
against the latest version of AWS-LC, which introduced a new transitive
include of `unistd.h` via `bio.h`.
This simply renames the function to avoid the error.

This registers support for the ML_KEM_{512,768,1024} key exchange
algorithms in the `openssl` plugin when built using AWS-LC as the
libcrypto. To do this, we introduce the `openssl_kem` source files
which implement the key exchange algorithm using the Key Encapsulation
Mechanism (KEM) API. Future KEM algorithms can be implemented
generically using this interface by substituting the appropriate NIDs.
It also supports both seeded (via DRBG) and unseeded modes depending
on the user's requirements for KATs or entropy sources.
It should be noted that this does not add support for KEM algorithms
within upstream OpenSSL and is API incompatible. Future work will need
to condition out the incompatibilities as-appropriate. However, the
high-level logic should be the same for all KEMs and KEM APIs.

AWS-LC is an OpenSSL derivative which can be used with the openssl plugin.
This adds a CI job that resembles the openssl-3 test case. It downloads
the source tarball for an AWS-LC release, builds that source using
CMake/Ninja, and then builds/tests strongSwan using the same technique
used by openssl-3.

AWS-LC (and likely BoringSSL) uses thread specific data to store internal
library state which gets freed via a registered destructor when the thread
terminates. If this thread happens to be the main thread, which runs the
leak-detective evaluation, the detective won't observe the corresponding free
of the related memory and erroneously reports it as a leak.
The two places this happens are:
- `RAND_bytes` for storing internal RNG state.
- `ERR_put_error` for storing the per-thread OpenSSL error queue.

OpenSSL stores the serial number for an X509 certificate as an
`ASN1_INTEGER` type. Within BoringSSL (and AWS-LC), the library
represents the value of zero as an empty array [1] which is different
from OpenSSL which represents it as the 1-byte array [0x00]. Though the
value of zero for the certificate serial number is illegal under
X.509 [2], we need to handle/encode it consistently within strongSwan.
From 18082ce2b0 ("certificates: Retrieve serial numbers in canonical
form"), we infer that the canonical representation of the zero serial
is [0x00]. To do this, we introduce `openssl_asn1_int2chunk` to
complement the existing string version that allows us to handle the
special case for zero instead of always returning a reference to the
library-dependent encodings.

AWS-LC lacks support for a number of elliptic curve algorithms so this
adds some conditional macros to avoid registering the related plugin
features. Support for curves ed448 and x448 is completely absent and are
not planned for implementation as they are no longer recommended for use.
While ed25519 is supported by the library, a single missing API for
ASN.1 DER encoding of its private keys is missing which prevents its
use in strongSwan. Future work may remove this limitation, but for now
we will disable the functionality.

AWS-LC is a BoringSSL-based libcrypto implementation. SHA_CTX is declared with
the hash data specified as an array rather than as a field in upstream OpenSSL.
Since AWS-LC builds against C99, we are unable to handle this with anonymous
unions like BoringSSL. The workaround I propose is to add these conditional
macros around the accessors within openssl_sha1_prf. After this change,
everything builds successfully with AWS-LC headers.
