OpenSSL is considered a system library (GPL: "major component of the
operating system") in Debian as of
http://meetbot.debian.net/debian-ftp/2020/debian-ftp.2020-03-13-20.02.html

With that, the exception for system libraries can be invoked and an
AGPL-licensed program may link with OpenSSL without an additional exception.

So, the #951705 changes can be reverted.
