Title:
  [23.10 FEAT] [needs-packaging] openssl-pkcs11-sign-provider

Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems:
  In Progress
Status in opencryptoki package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  openssl-pkcs11-sign-provider

  OpenSSL Provider for asymmetric signing operations with private PKCS#11 keys.
   OpenSSL 3.0 replaces the engine pluging framework by a provider plugin frame work. Even though the engine framework shall remain as a deprecated framework in openSSL 3.0, Linux distributions may build openSSL without engine support.
   Therefore a restricted PKCS #11 provider is required that supports signing operations via PKCS #11 for existing keys reference by an PKCS #11 object URI.
