Unsupported DNSSEC algorithms should not lead to SERVFAIL.

Ok, fair enough, there are differences. Not obvious from reading the 
text of issues only, it seems exactly the same issue on the first glance.

Filled https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/-/issues/5622 to track 
just the issue reported in stable releases.

The core seems to be related. Especially "no valid signature found" is 
the first message in delv +vtrace, which is different from working 
version output.

Ok, this bug does not need any special behavior of delegation. It 
deserves own issue then, right.

Fedora 9.18.41 contains the same problem, but OpenSSL library does not prevent usage of 5 and 7 algorithms there. It is not visible.

Especially because it should be able to reproduce it on any system, which disables RSASHA1 and RSASHA1NSEC3 algorithms. But delv tool shows wrong behaviour only on CentOS 9 or CentOS 10 derivatives. On other systems it seems unaffected on the first glance.
