Workaround issue in LibreSSL crashing when enumerating digests/ciphers

OpenBSD/LibreSSL reimplemented EVP_get_cipherbyname/EVP_get_digestbyname
and broke calling EVP_get_cipherbynid/EVP_get_digestbyname with an
invalid nid in the process so that it would segfault.

Workaround but doing that NULL check in OpenVPN instead of leaving it
to the library.
