OpenSSL 3.0
-----------
### Major changes between OpenSSL 1.1.1 and OpenSSL 3.0 [under development]
* Remove the `RAND_DRBG` API.
* Deprecated the `ENGINE` API.
* Added `OPENSSL_CTX`, a libcrypto library context.
* Interactive mode is removed from the 'openssl' program.
* The X25519, X448, Ed25519, Ed448 and SHAKE256 algorithms are included in
the FIPS provider. None have the "fips=yes" property set and, as such,
will not be accidentially used.
* The algorithm specific public key command line applications have
been deprecated. These include dhparam, gendsa and others. The pkey
alternatives should be used instead: pkey, pkeyparam and genpkey.
* X509 certificates signed using SHA1 are no longer allowed at security
level 1 or higher. The default security level for TLS is 1, so
certificates signed using SHA1 are by default no longer trusted to
authenticate servers or clients.
* enable-crypto-mdebug and enable-crypto-mdebug-backtrace were mostly
disabled; the project uses address sanitize/leak-detect instead.
* Added a Certificate Management Protocol (CMP, RFC 4210) implementation
also covering CRMF (RFC 4211) and HTTP transfer (RFC 6712).
It is part of the crypto lib and adds a 'cmp' app with a demo configuration.
All widely used CMP features are supported for both clients and servers.
* Added a proper HTTP(S) client to libcrypto supporting GET and POST,
redirection, plain and ASN.1-encoded contents, proxies, and timeouts.
* Added util/check-format.pl for checking adherence to the coding guidelines.
* Added OSSL_ENCODER, a generic encoder API.
*
