Add EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_provided() This works as much as possible EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id(), except it takes data that's relevant for providers, algorithm name and property query string instead of NID and engine. Additionally, if EVP_PKEY_CTX_new() or EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_id() was called, the algorithm name in the EVP_PKEY context will be set to the short name of the given NID (explicit or the one of the given EVP_PKEY), thereby giving an easier transition from legacy methods to provided methods. The intent is that operations will use this information to fetch provider methods implicitly as needed.

We mention "key type" in this manual, which is the same
as "algorithm" in most cases, allowing either term to be used
interchangeably. There are algorithms where the I<key type> and the
I<algorithm> of the operations that use the keys are not the same,
such as EC keys being used for ECDSA and ECDH operations.
