Now that the new protocol does not depend on OpenSSL anymore I'll try to
make it so that you can compile tinc without it. You'll lose backwards
compatibility with 1.0.x though.
If anyone wants to work on getting tinc's legacy protocol to work with
another library besides OpenSSL, be my guest. Look at src/openssl and
src/gcrypt in the 1.1 branch in git for what's required.
