Research direction

Start with resty/aes.lua at line 106 and reproduce the undefined EVP_md5 error in the reported LuaJIT installation. Trace how the native library is loaded and identify the dependency or linking mismatch that leaves EVP_md5 unavailable. Done means the AES utility loads and runs without this symbol error, with the required environment or compatibility notes documented.
