Lets make 3.7 require a higher version. The common OSS OS distros of its

Especially is warned.

My multissl test script allows me to compile and test _ssl.c and
_hashopenssl.c with multiple versions of OpenSSL and LibreSSL in less
than a minute. For 3.6 I have verified source compatibility with 0.9.8zc
(maybe even older) up to 1.1.0.

My argument with MAL is about future features for 3.7. I'm not planning
to require 1.0.2 APIs for 3.6 yet. This may change in case new security
issues are found. I might clean up the ssl module and require 0.9.8zc+
during beta, though.

So, in 3.6, and maybe even 3.5.3, add a deprecation warning when OSSL < 1.0.2 is used.
