I think it's the other way around.
Sendmail is told to support authentication via one or more methods, one
of which can be SASL and co.
The actual SASL auth daemon just listens on a unix socket and / or TCP
port for clients to test authentication pairs, returning a pass fail
type message.
I used openssl s_client to connect to my sendmail, it was happy with
the certs, but in response to the ehlo gives me no auth line at all.

Very strange.
Very annoying, definitely.
I don't know if it's strange yet or not. I think the strangeness will
be confirmed or refuted after finding out why Sendmail isn't offering
AUTH options.
My favorite thing to turn to when things that used to work and now don't
is to restore a backup of the configuration file and compare them. Can
you do that with your sendmail.cf or sendmail.mc file?
There's also a chance that it's your submit.cf or submit.mc file since
we're talking about the MSA on port 587. (Unless you aren't using the
separate MSA which has been standard for 15+ years.)
