Non FIPS algorithms are not normally allowed in FIPS mode.
Any attempt to use them via high level functions will return an error.
The low level non-FIPS algorithm functions cannot return errors so they
produce assertion failures. HMAC also has to give an assertion error because
it (erroneously) can't return an error either.
There are exceptions (such as MD5 in TLS and non cryptographic use of
algorithms) and applications can override the blocking and use non FIPS
algorithms anyway.
For low level functions the override is perfomed by prefixing the algorithm
initalization function with "private_" for example private_MD5_Init().
For high level functions an override is performed by setting a flag in
the context.
CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a side-
effect always do the following basic checks on extensions, not just
when there's an associated purpose to the check:
- if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user has
chosen to ignore this fault)
- if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
- that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has been
given)
VMS. The C RTL can handle it well if the "directory" is a logical
name with no colon, therefore ending being 'logname/file'. However,
if the given logical names actually has a colon, or if you use a full
VMS-syntax directory, you end up with 'logname:/file' or
'dev:[dir1.dir2]/file', and that isn't handled in any good way.
So, on VMS, we need to check if the directory string ends with a
separator (one of ':', ']' or '>' (< and > can be used instead [ and
])), and handle that by not inserting anything between the directory
spec and the file name. In all other cases, it's assumed the
directory spec is a logical name, so we need to place a colon between
it and the file.

Use BUF_strlcat() instead of strcat().
Use BIO_snprintf() instead of sprintf().
In some cases, keep better track of buffer lengths.

NB: X509_STORE_CTX's use of "ex_data" support was actually misimplemented
(initialisation by "memset" won't/can't/doesn't work). This fixes that but
requires that X509_STORE_CTX_init() be able to handle errors - so its
prototype has been changed to return 'int' rather than 'void'. All uses of
that function throughout the source code have been tracked down and
adjusted.
