Update to OpenSAML 4
4af6fa2 
This commit switches the security and identity-provider plugins to use
v4 of the OpenSAML library (upgraded from v3).

In order to facilitate this upgrade the following changes are also
made:
- Common Codec is upgraded to 1.15 across all modules
- Guava is upgraded to v30 in the 2 affected modules
- BouncyCastle has added of the 2 affected modules (OpenSAML4 has a
  direct dependency on BouncyCastle that we haven't found a way to
  avoid yet)
- SecureSM has been changed to support the Cleaner class in Java9, and
  the InnocuousThread more generally

Reconfirming what we already know, adding the standard BC Jars to the classpath means that we cannot run in FIPS mode.
If I hack around the JarHell checks, we end up with:

[2021-08-31T18:47:10,868][ERROR][o.e.b.ElasticsearchUncaughtExceptionHandler] [node01] fatal error in thread [main], exiting
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 'byte[] org.bouncycastle.util.encoders.Hex.decodeStrict(java.lang.String)'

And if I remove bcprov from the modules/x-pack-security directory, we fail (as expected) with:

[2021-08-31T18:49:44,716][ERROR][o.e.b.ElasticsearchUncaughtExceptionHandler] [node01] fatal error in thread [main], exiting

I can use a javaagent to load BCFIPS & BCJSSE on an isolated classloader and register them as security providers. That avoids the JarHell problems (both the triggering of the check and the real problem of having 2 different versions of a class within a single classloading hierarchy).

However, that still means that we would ship with a non-FIPS-certified version of BC, we just wouldn't install it as a java.security.Provider. That's not a good outcome from a FIPS point of view.

Which is to say, I think we can make it work technically, but there could still be a FIPS policy problem.

@tvernum
Downgrade to OpenSAML4.0.1

This resolves FIPS issues by removing the direct dependency on
BouncyCastle's bcprov jar, see
