There is value in having the same semantics as OpenBSD for the TCP_MD5SIG
option <https://man.openbsd.org/tcp.4>.

If OpenBSD's semantics of the TCP_MD5SIG option were different, I likely
would have taken a different approach. And also given that FreeBSD and
OpenBSD's TCP_MD5SIG option had the same behavior until we diverged in 2017.

..that's how I ended up going in this direction
