This was also added in #5081, but with a different meaning.

This also won't return true for openssl3-fips (and we probably wouldn't want it to for this use case). To avoid having two similar APIs here, would it maybe make sense to just add a #elif to s2n_supports_custom_rand and return false specifically for OpenSSL 1.0.2-fips (OPENSSL_FIPS is defined)? I'm not sure it's going to be that useful anywhere else anyway.

{
#if defined(OPENSSL_FIPS)
return true;
#else
return false;
#endif

Is the AWS-LC check necessary? The custom RAND is never used with aws-lc anyway, right?

bool disable_for_fips = s2n_libcrypto_is_openssl_fips() || awslc_fips_with_fips_enabled;
return s2n_libcrypto_is_openssl() && !disable_for_fips;
#endif
