doc: update documentation for FIPS support

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/richardlau/fips into main

When using OpenSSL 3, Node.js supports FIPS 140-2 when used with an appropriate OpenSSL 3 provider. It is no longer necessary to rebuild Node.js with different build time options.

Add a section on how to configure Node.js to use an OpenSSL 3 FIPS provider to the documentation for the crypto module.
