Add a child OSSL_LIB_CTX that will mirror the providers loaded into the
parent libctx. This is useful for providers that want to use algorithms
from other providers and just need to inherit the providers used by the
application.

Change things so that passing NULL to OSSL_LIB_CTX_set0_default() means
keep the current library context unchanged.
This has the advantage of simplifying error handling, e.g. you can call
OSSL_LIB_CTX_set0_default in an error/finalisation block safe in the
knowledge the if the "prevctx" was never set then it will be a no-op (like
calling a "free" function with NULL).

Many of the new types introduced by OpenSSL 3.0 have an OSSL_ prefix,
e.g., OSSL_CALLBACK, OSSL_PARAM, OSSL_ALGORITHM, OSSL_SERIALIZER.
The OPENSSL_CTX type stands out a little by using a different prefix.
For consistency reasons, this type is renamed to OSSL_LIB_CTX.
