This is related to the discussion in PR #14383. It has already been
decided to add OSSL_PARAM arrays as an argument to the various EVP
"init" functions. During the implementation of that there were differing
views about whether this same change should be reflected in the
core<->provider interface, i.e. so that the provider init functions
would also take OSSL_PARAM arrays. The alternative was to have the
libcrypto implementation of the init functions call the provider init
and the provider set_params calls separately.

I need more information than the vote text to be able to vote on
this.
