src: add --openssl-legacy-provider option

This commit adds an option to Node.js named --openssl-legacy-provider and if specified will load OpenSSL 3.0 Legacy provider. $ ./node --help ... --openssl-legacy-provider enable OpenSSL 3.0 legacy provider Example usage: $ ./node --openssl-legacy-provider -p 'crypto.createHash("md4")' Hash { _options: undefined, [Symbol(kHandle)]: Hash {}, [Symbol(kState)]: { [Symbol(kFinalized)]: false } } Co-authored-by: Richard Lau <rlau@redhat.com> Refs: nodejs#40455
