It isn't a big problem here for me (default = no-fips, whether the
/usr/local/openssl/fips/ tree was discovered or not.) It was future
proofing a new schema before some existing fips binary might be
detected on a build box inadvertently.

But for consistency, permitting 'no-fips' for the lifespan of 1.0.2/1.1.0
seems prudent. No reason for it to survive on master.
