EL 9 (RHEL / Alma / ...) DEFAULT crypto policy only uses SHA1 for HMAC where safe https://access.redhat.com/articles/6846411 https://gitlab.com/redhat-crypto/fedora-crypto-policies/-/blob/rhel9/policies/DEFAULT.pol https://gitlab.com/redhat-crypto/fedora-crypto-policies/-/blob/rhel9/policies/modules/NO-SHA1.pmod

Description of problem:

we direct users to use DEFAULT:NO-SHA1 but it's not needed

Proposed change:

Do not fail checks when user is using DEFAULT DEFAULT:NO-SHA1 doesn't change anything compared to DEFAULT on EL 9
