The OpenJCEPlusFIPS provider may run on platforms that support developer mode. On these systems, the provider should always report that it is operating in FIPS mode to ensure behavior is consistent with fully FIPS-certified platforms. This change simulates FIPS operation as closely as possible in development environments.
