slontis b7cf9dd239 SHAKE documentation updates for default output length.
Fixes #18586

In order to not break existing applications the OpenSSL documentation
related to SHAKE has been updated.

Background:

All digests algorithms (including XOF's) use the bitlen as the default output length.
This results in a security strength of bitlen / 2.

This means that SHAKE128 will by default have an output length of 16
bytes and a security strength of 64 bits.

For SHAKE256 the default output length is 32 bytes and has a security
strength of 128 bits.

This behaviour was present in 1.1.1 and has been duplicated in the
provider SHAKE algorithms for 3.0.

The SHAKE XOF algorithms have a security strength of
min(bitlen, output xof length in bits / 2).
