openssl: switch to the ocf-linux package
Remove builtin OCF support from the openssl package into a new package. Even though ocf support is just a header file we'd rather have it in a separate package because of unrelated version bumps and to fetch it from source.

help
Enable openssl cryptodev (OCF) hardware acceleration support.
- This requires kernel patches from the ocf-linux project otherwise
- you'll just have a bigger openssl library that works as usual.
+ This requires the ocf linux kernel extension or you to provide a
+ pre-patched kernel that includes it.
+ If kernel support isn't available it'll just make the libraries
+ a tiny bit larger with a small CPU overhead when starting up and
+ checking for the required kernel-side support, and then falling
+ back to regular builtin support.
