Subject: [PATCH] engine: Enable external AES-GCM IV when libica is in FIPS
 mode

When the system is in FIPS mode, newer libica versions may prevent AES-GCM
from being used with an external IV. FIPS requires that the AES-GCM IV is
created libica internally via an approved random source.

The IBMCA engine can not support the internal generation of the AES-GCM IV,
because the engine API for AES-GCM does not allow this. Applications using
OpenSSL to perform AES-GCM (e.g. the TLS protocol) may require to provide an
external IV.

Enable the use of external AES-GCM IVs for libica, if the used libica library
supports this. Newer libica versions support to allow external AES-GCM IVs via
function ica_allow_external_gcm_iv_in_fips_mode().
