Evan Hunt acbb301e64 [master] better error output when initializing pkcs11
3786.	[func]		Provide more detailed error codes when using
			native PKCS#11. "pkcs11-tokens" now fails robustly
			rather than asserting when run against an HSM with
			an incomplete PCKS#11 API implementation. [RT #35479]

"pkcs11-hmacmd5" is here to check for the presence of a known bug in
the Thales nCipher PKCS#11 provider library.  To test for the bug, use
pkcs11-hmacmd5 to hash a test vector from RFC 2104, and determine
whether the resulting digest is is correct.  For instance:

    echo -n "Hi There" | \
        ./pkcs11-hmacmd5 -p <PIN> -k '0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b'

...must return "9294727a3638bb1c13f48ef8158bfc9d".

If any other value is returned, then the provider library is buggy,
and the compilation flag PKCS11CRYPTOWITHHMAC must *not* be defined.
However, if the correct value is returned, then it is safe to turn
on PKCS11CRYPTOWITHHMAC. (It is off by default.)
