I recently discovered that the custom NodeJS specific OpenSSL config section in openssl.cnf would not be respected, if the environment variable `NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS` was set. This happens even if it contains an invalid value, i.e no actual certs are read. Someone suggested moving the checking of extra ca certs to after the OpenSSL config is read, and this seems to work.

I recently discovered that the custom NodeJS specific OpenSSL config section in openssl.cnf would not be respected, if the environment variable
NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTSwas set.This happens even if it contains an invalid value, i.e no actual certs are read.
Someone suggested moving the checking of extra ca certs to after the OpenSSL config is read, and this seems to work.
I wasn't sure how to add a test for this directly into the repo, but as part of my bug report, I had constructed a test which attempts to make a TLS connection to the offending server with a custom OpenSSL config, once with
NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTSset to"", and once with a dummy value (e.g/dev/null)To test this change, I build node with the patch and made published it as a container (you can see dockerfile & patch here: https://github.com/ckcr4lyf/no-rfc5746/tree/master/patched_node)
I then updated my tests to load the custom SSL config into this patched node and try the same test, and it passes both cases now!
An example run can be found here: https://github.com/ckcr4lyf/no-rfc5746/actions/runs/5071123450
Note: I am testing the node's usage of the custom SSL config by providing a non-default legacy renegotiation option, and then connecting to a mocked server where I handcraft this insecure ServerHello.
Fixes #48143
