Remove the possibility to disable the UI module entirely
Instead, make it possible to disable the console reader that's part of the UI module. This makes it possible to use the UI API and other UI methods in environments where the console reader isn't useful. To disable the console reader, configure with 'no-ui-console' / 'disable-ui-console'. 'no-ui' / 'disable-ui' is now an alias for 'no-ui-console' / 'disable-ui-console'. Fixes #3806 Reviewed-by: Rich Salz <rsalz@openssl.org> (Merged from https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/3820)

Changes between 1.1.0f and 1.1.1 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ *) The UI API becomes a permanent and integral part of libcrypto, i.e.
+ not possible to disable entirely. However, it's still possible to
+ disable the console reading UI method, UI_OpenSSL() (use UI_null()
+ as a fallback).
+
+ To disable, configure with 'no-ui-console'. 'no-ui' is still
+ possible to use as an alias. Check at compile time with the
+ macro OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE. The macro OPENSSL_NO_UI is still
+ possible to check and is an alias for OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE.
+ [Richard Levitte]

*) Add a STORE module, which implements a uniform and URI based reader of
stores that can contain keys, certificates, CRLs and numerous other
objects. The main API is loosely based on a few stdio functions,
