fips_algorithms.h is a vendor specific file that is based on each vendor's evaluation. Data structures in the file are used by the actual indicator code and need to be updated periodically moving the data structures out of fips_algorithms.h means vendors don't need to update their fips_algorithms.h when a new version of NSS is picked up, even if it supports more fine grain indicators, It only needs to be updated when the vendor does a new validation.
