That is a culprit.
It hijacks an established API expected in nginx, don't do that.
Defining TLS1_3_VERSION forces nginx to maximize a maximum supported
protocol version to TLSv1.3. By default it is not set, and if libssl
supports the corresponding API, then it is set to TLSv1.2.
The presence of TLS1_3_VERSION implies SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_3, which is not
actually defined in this particular case. That's why disabling TLSv1.3
(or, not enabling) in the nginx configuration doesn't have an effect.
Enabling TLSv1.3 this way[1] looks wrong.

The port maintainer should probably examine a different way
to do this. For example, such as defining LIBRESSL_HAS_TLS1_3
as seen in include/openssl/opensslfeatures.h comments of LibreSSL.
