We could probably drop support for LibreSSL < 4 since supported OpenBSD and DragonflyBSD releases come with LibreSSL 4. Same for Alpine Linux or FreeBSD (optional package). |

We checked for the existence of functions on LibSSL but the functions are defined on LibCrypto (oops). The cleanup correctly enables the verify param!

I made some additional cleanup: we don't need to check for functions that are now always present (e.g. ALPN) or set removed options. I also realized that the default verify params feature... was always disabled because we checked for functions on LibSSL while they are defined on LibCrypto (oops). Now it's enabled 😓 Notes:

Drops support for OpenSSL 1.0.2, OpenSSL 1.1.0 and LibreSSL 2 that don't appear in any supported system anymore. One of the oldest, Debian 12 bullseye (oldoldstable) for example, distributes OpenSSL 1.1.1, same for Ubuntu 22.04, ...
There should be no impact, but since we drop some support, it's still a breaking change.
Closes #15423.
Related to #16475.
