OpenSSL 3.x removed support for ripemd160, which is what python's hashlib library was using to provide this feature. As such, systems that ship with or have otherwise installed OpenSSL 3.x (Ubuntu 22.04+ for example) will encounter functional test failures.
We only use hashlib in functional tests specifically for ripemd160, so can just replace the dependency with a native implementation of ripemd160.
