JIRA ID:
https://jira.suse.com/browse/SLE-15098

Description:
Samba 4.12 removes its own crypto and moves to GnuTLS. This move, together with a FIPS validated GnuTLS, will allow to run it with FIPS, and will increase performance. More details at: https://www.samba.org/samba/history/samba-4.12.0.html
