In practice, this only adds that we now do certificate expiry checks
and give warnings, like on *NIX.
The HAS_X509_check_host is good because then OpenSSL/LibreSSL code is
used instead of the one we have from cURL and the ssl conservatory.
To be honest I wanted to rip out this fallback completely at first,
but let's do that in next major version of UnrealIRCd and not during
an existing series.
The HAS_SSL_CTX_SET_* would have given an admin the option to downgrade
to TLSv1.0 or TLSv1.1 but LibreSSL no longer builds with these since
LibreSSL 3.8.1, which is sensible, so... no actual change there.
I'll document the behavior in the docs (wiki), though.
Also the previous claim in b653c68df0 with
regards to what curves were actually enabled in our LibreSSL UnrealIRCd 6
builds was incorrect, an hour ago I claimed X448 would show up as an extra,
but that is not the case (that was with OpenSSL). The correct statement is:
"This also meant the default curves that were offered were up to LibreSSL,
which meant the following list in practice:
Elliptic curves offered: prime256v1 secp384r1 X25519
Instead of:
Elliptic curves offered: prime256v1 secp384r1 secp521r1 X25519"
So it was only missing secp521r1. Nothing major.
