bpo-40791: Use CRYPTO_memcmp() for compare_digest (#20456)
hashlib.compare_digest uses OpenSSL's CRYPTO_memcmp() function
when OpenSSL is available.
Note: The _operator module is a builtin module. I don't want to add
libcrypto dependency to libpython. Therefore I duplicated the wrapper
function and added a copy to _hashopenssl.c.
