Public bug reported:

I would like to have the most recent openssl version possible in Noble.
For that I am requesting to upload all the commits in the openssl-3.0
branch that follow 3.0.13 which is already in the archive.

I would like to include 3.0.14 afterwards if feasible. Having the most
recent commits of the 3.0 branch will make that easier.

I went through all commits since 3.0.13 at the end of January. I skipped
a few which touch files that are not in the 3.0.13 release tarball
(github CI stuff mostly) and edited one that touched such a file.

There are only fixes. This is not surprising considering we are past the
13th patch release for openssl 3.0, and almost 3 years after 3.0 was
released.

Changes are most usually backports which is a good thing as it means
they are also tested in the other branches, including through 3.3, for
which the .0 release was published a few days ago after weeks in
beta/RC.

There are a few behaviour tweaks, and that is why I want to get as close
as possible to what 3.0.14 will be. The bigger one is
ad6cbe4b7f57a783a66a7ae883ea0d35ef5f82b6: Revert "Improved detection of
engine-provided private "classic" keys", which also states "The
workaround has caused more problems than it solved."

As I said, I went through all commits. All look safe to me. The question
really boils down to whether we will include these fixes in Noble now or
if we won't: there is only a very very small chance that any given
change is SRU'ed afterwards.
