security/openssh-portable: Add option to build without OpenSSL

PR:
```

The --without-openssl option was added to OpenSSH in version 6.8.

For any non-ancient machines, OpenSSH built without OpenSSL dependency works
just fine. From changelog of OpenSSH 6.8:

> * Support --without-openssl at configure time
>
>   Disables and removes dependency on OpenSSL. Many features,
>   including SSH protocol 1 are not supported and the set of crypto
>   options is greatly restricted. This will only work on systems
>   with native arc4random or /dev/urandom.
>
>   Considered highly experimental for now.

I've been patching the port locally for years now, haven't run into issues.
