<summary>Recommended update for go1.21-openssl</summary>
<description>This update for go1.21-openssl fixes the following issues:
Initial package go1.21-openssl version 1.21.3.1 cut from the
go1.21-openssl-fips branch at the revision tagged
go1.21.3-1-openssl-fips. (jsc#SLE-18320)
This package is on the go1.21.3 upstream level.
* Go upstream merged branch dev.boringcrypto in go1.19+.
* In go1.x enable BoringCrypto via GOEXPERIMENT=boringcrypto.
* In go1.x-openssl enable FIPS mode (or boring mode as the
package is named) either via an environment variable
GOLANG_FIPS=1 or by virtue of booting the host in FIPS mode.
* When the operating system is operating in FIPS mode, Go
applications which import crypto/tls/fipsonly limit operations
to the FIPS ciphersuite.
* go1.x-openssl is delivered as two large patches to go1.x
applying necessary modifications from the golang-fips/go GitHub
project for the Go crypto library to use OpenSSL as the
external cryptographic library in a FIPS compliant way.
* go1.x-openssl modifies the crypto/* packages to use OpenSSL for
cryptographic operations.
* go1.x-openssl uses dlopen() to call into OpenSSL.
* SUSE RPM packaging introduces a fourth version digit go1.x.y.z
corresponding to the golang-fips/go patchset tagged revision.
* Patchset improvements can be updated independently of upstream
Go maintenance releases.
