OpenSSLInitializer::uninitialize() Openssl 3.x

[micheleselea]

If we use Openssl 3.x basically OpenSSLInitializer::uninitialize() does nothing.
In initialize is called CONF_modules_load() and probably we should call something like CONF_modules_unload(1);
And we should probably call even
OSSL_PROVIDER_unload(_defaultProvider);
and
OSSL_PROVIDER_unload(_legacyProvider);

From what I remember we tried this in the past, but it would lead to a crash when shutting down the application.

My app was crashing on exit because I did Poco::Net::uninitializeSSL(); in a Singleton destructor. I removed from the destructor and do it more explicit and it's working. Anyway I think it's not such a problem even the OpenSSLInitializer::uninitialize() does nothing because usually it's called on shut down

Which version of Poco?
