The self tests for the fips module are triggered on startup and they need to know the
core's libctx in order to function correctly. As the provider can be autoloaded via configuration
it then needs to propagate the callers libctx down to the provider via the config load.
Note that OPENSSL_init_crypto(OPENSSL_INIT_LOAD_CONFIG, ..) is still called, but will only load the default
configuration if the OPENSSL_CONF environment variable is set.

Replace the properties default, fips and legacy with a single property
called "provider". So, for example, instead of writing "default=yes" to
get algorithms from the default provider you would instead write
"provider=default". We also have a new "fips" property to indicate that
an algorithm is compatible with FIPS mode. This applies to all the
algorithms in the FIPS provider, as well as any non-cryptographic
algorithms (currently only serializers).
