The following is the detail instruction steps how to upgrade openssl

- The fix of openssl-cli built on win. Key press requirement of
openssl-cli in win causes timeout failures of several tests.

- Backport patches for alt cert feature from openssl-1.1.x. Root certs
of 1024bit RSA key length were deprecated in io.js. When a tls
server has a cross root cert, io.js client leads CERT_UNTRUSTED
error because openssl does not find alternate cert chains. This fix
supports its feature but was made the current master which is
openssl-1.1.x. We backported them privately into openssl-1.0.2 on
iojs.
- A new `-no_rand_screen` option to openssl s_client. This makes test
time of test-tls-server-verify be much faster.

### 4. Change `opensslconf.h` so as to fit each platform.
The opensslconf.h in each target was created in advance by typing
`deps/openssl/openssl/Configure {target}` and copied
into `deps/openssl/conf/archs/{target}/opensslconf.h`.
`deps/openssl/conf/openssconf.h` includes each file according to its
target by checking pre-defined compiler macros. These can be generated
by using `deps/openssl/conf/Makefile`

We should remove OPENSSL_CPUID_OBJ define in opensslconf.h because it
causes build error when --openss-no-asm option is specified. Instead,
the OPENSSL_CPUID_OBJ is defined in `deps/openssl/openssl.gypi`
according to the configure options.

One fix of opensslconf.h is needed in 64-bit MacOS.
The current openssl release does not use RC4 asm since it explicitly
specified as `$asm=~s/rc4\-[^:]+//;` in
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/OpenSSL_1_0_1-stable/Configure#L584
But iojs has used RC4 asm on MacOS for long time. Fix type of RC4_INT
into `unsigned int` in opensslconf.h of darwin64-x86_64-cc to work on
the RC4 asm.
No change.

### 5. Update openssl.gyp and openssl.gypi
Sources, cflags and define parameters that depends on each target can
be obtained via `Configure TABLE`. Its list is put in the table of
[define and cflags changes in openssl-1.0.2a](openssl_define_list.pdf)

There is no way to verify all necessary sources automatically. We can
only carefully look at the source list and compiled objects in
Makefile of openssl and compare the compiled objects that stored
stored under `out/Release/obj.target/openssl/deps/openssl/' in iojs.
No change.
