Earlier today, it took me five manuals! to find what on earth the
"Performance"/"EVP_MD_fetch(3)" crosslinks actually mean:
EVP_sha1(3)
crypto(7)
EVP_MD_fetch(3) (but not there! don't read that!)
OSSL_PROVIDER-default(7)
EVP_MD-SHA1(7)
If, instead, EVP_sha1(3) referenced EVP_MD-SHA1(7) at /all/,
which it should do, since it's supposed to be what you're replacing it
with, but it doesn't actually say that, maybe people would use it.
I know I didn't because it's basically just deadass buried

Clearly document that implicit fetching is slower when using providers,
and explain prefetching. Added to crypto.pod and migration_guide.pod
links to it.
Add a link to EVP_default_properties_enable_fips() in crypto.pod.
