Provide a "simple" example for affecting the systemwide default behavior
of libssl. The large number of mandatory nested sections makes this
less simple than the main description might suggest.

If the old openssl versions not supporting the .include directive
load a config file with it, they will bail out with error.
This change allows using the .include = <filename> syntax which
is interpreted as variable assignment by the old openssl
config file parser.

It is talked around but not explicitly stated in one part of the
documentation that you should put library configuration lines at the
start of the configuration file.

conf has the ability to expand variables in config files. Repeatedly doing
this can lead to an exponential increase in the amount of memory required.
This places a limit on the length of a value that can result from an
expansion.
Credit to OSS-Fuzz for finding this problem.

This removes the fips configure option. This option is broken as the
required FIPS code is not available.
FIPS_mode() and FIPS_mode_set() are retained for compatibility, but
FIPS_mode() always returns 0, and FIPS_mode_set() can only be used to
turn FIPS mode off.
