Unrelated, but similar code-wise to #8643. There is a check in `DNSResolver` which automatically fails to resolve hostnames which do not contain the `.` character. This PR removes that check.
Fixes#8633. The function `append_net_address` did not parse hostname + port addresses (e.g. `bar:29080`) correctly if the hostname did not contain a `'.'` character.

clear up 2nd conditional statement
As of OpenSSL 3.0, `SHA256_Init`, `SHA256_Update`, and `SHA256_Final`
are deprectaed in favor of the higher-level `EVP_*` class of functions.
This causes compiler warnings, and sooner or later, will cause build
errors as these functions are excluded from distro headers.
Also add some documentation.
While copying my data dir to another drive, I missed copying the rpc_ssl.key file b/c of the file permissions.
This change will give a much more clear, descriptive error in that scenario.
