    * src/openssl.c: fix ssl_init for openssl 1.1.1

    ssl_init fails with openssl 1.1.1 when openssl.cnf is not found.
    Redundant calls to intialization functions were removed as
    OPENSSL_config takes care of them for openssl versions < 1.1.0.
    For versions > 1.1.0, OPENSSL_init_ssl is preferred.
