OpenSSl 3 statically linking a provider

[Kory Hamzeh]

I have written a custom provider which I need to include (link) with my Application at link time rather than load it at run-time. The init function is defined like this:

OSSL_provider_init_fn sck_provider_init;

int sck_provider_init(const OSSL_CORE_HANDLE *handle,
		       const OSSL_DISPATCH *in,
		       const OSSL_DISPATCH **out,
		       void **provctx)

But I cannot figure out how to initialize/load it in my app. The man page for provider(7) states that it is possible to do this, but does not explain how. Is that documented somewhere?

Thanks,
Kory
