EVP_DigestInit_ex forced following of the legacy path if ctx->pctx is
set (meaning we've actually been called via EVP_DigestSignInit_ex).
There is some code in the legacy path that calls the
EVP_PKEY_CTRL_DIGESTINIT ctrl on the pctx. Not going down the legacy path
if ctx->pctx is set means that ctrl message will neve get sent. However,
it turns out that all algs that understand that ctrl also set the
EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_NO_INIT flag which forces legacy anyway. Therefore the
ctx->pctx check is not required and can be removed.
