Commit b3d26e438a ("merge feature/removesslv3", PR #29338) renamed SSL3
error codes to TLS equivalents and updated the string descriptions in
crypto/ssl_err.c (e.g. from "ssl/tls alert bad certificate" to
"tls alert bad certificate"), but did not update the corresponding
strings in crypto/err/openssl.txt.
This caused a latent divergence: running mkerr.pl -rebuild would
regenerate ssl_err.c with the old openssl.txt strings, undoing the
intentional name cleanup. Similarly, adding any new SSL error code
triggers a full SSL regeneration that would revert the strings and
reorder entries to their correct alphabetical positions, producing
spurious changes unrelated to the new code.
Update openssl.txt to match the strings already in ssl_err.c, which
also happen to be the auto-generated strings derived from the reason
code names. Regenerate ssl_err.c and sslerr.h with the correct
alphabetical ordering so that future make update runs are idempotent:
adding and removing a new SSL error code now produces only the expected
changes to the generated files, with no side-effect reordering or
string reversions.
