Commit Message

Yi Zhao April 1, 2026, 7:30 a.m. UTC 
Radiusd fails to start because the openssl legacy provider is no longer
built by default[1]:

$ radiusd -C -X
FreeRADIUS Version 3.2.8
[snip]
(TLS) Failed loading legacy provider

Add PACKAGECONFIG[legacy-openssl] to enable openssl legacy provider
support. When disabled, pass --enable-fips-workaround to configure
instead.

Backport two patches to fix the --enable-fips-workaround option.
