OpenSSL 1.1.1 libssl.so version number

[Cy Schubert]

Not necessarily 12. ports/openssl111 should have the same ABI as HEAD so they should share the same version number. The fact that openssl111 in HEAD and openssl 1.0.2 in ports share the same version number but do not share the same ABI is the problem.

It looks to me like the base libssl.so version needs to get moved to a
value that doesn't collide with ports, perhaps 12.  These are the
library version numbers currently used by the various ssl ports:

	boringssl       1
	openssl         9
	openssl-devel   10
	openssl111      11
	libressl        43
	libressl-devel  44
