The UTF8 type is a string and if its length is known, it doesn't need to
be '\0' terminated. So passing the address of a char works (it's a char
* after all).
Thanks for the other fix.

Thanks, Paul. I noticed the type values matched the RFC, but thought maybe it
should be a string if that was the case.
I did find another issue:
if (EVP_KDF_derive(kctx, out, , params) <= 0)
The actual value of ‘outlen’ should be passed, not the address.

It is correct, the KDF is expecting the characters 'A' through 'F'
here. This is what is specified in the RFC:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4253#section-7.2
That line of code ought to have cast to (char *) or type defined simply
as char, but it is essentially correct.
