We use libcurl in this project so I followed on from Daniel's earlier work

add support for BoringSSL.
Thanks for your work!
You'll see that I modified your patch slightly to make it smaller and use the
#define to empty-macros approach just to avoid #ifdefs within code a little
more.
BoringSSL has an incompatible DES API with missing functions. It doesn't seem
to have the MD4 functions and it lacks PCKS12 support.
With two additional commits I made curl build and link fine with BoringSSL,
as-is.
* Look at how best to print/report BoringSSL version
- BoringSSL does not have "versions", I have been using git commit hashes
to track BoringSSL versions in our project
If they don't have any identifiers upstream then I don't think we can just
invent something. It may of course be a subtle signal about how sensible it is
to base something on this...
* Integrate BoringSSL detection into configure.ac and correctly handle
the missing openssl/ui.h and openssl/engine.h headers (and set the
relevant #defines)
I took a shot at it and it now says "BoringSSL" in the configure summary.
