crypto: fix crash when calling digest after piping #28251

When piping data into an SHA3 hash, EVP_DigestFinal_ex is called in hash._flush, bypassing safeguards in the JavaScript layer. Calling hash.digest causes EVP_DigestFinal_ex to be called again, resulting in a segmentation fault in the SHA3 implementation of OpenSSL.

A relatively easy solution is to cache the result of calling EVP_DigestFinal_ex until the Hash object is garbage collected.

Fixes: #28245

Sadly, an error occurred when I tried to trigger a build. :(

Sorry, I forgot to manually close the PR after landing this yesterday. I think this should land cleanly on v10 and v12.

Thanks for reviewing.
