dependencies: add a system dependency for OpenSSL

On some platforms, this is provided by the base system, which
nevertheless refrains from providing the .pc files that go along with
it. As a result, it's impossible to sensibly find these dependencies.

I'm looking at you, FreeBSD...

Upstream tracking bug: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=257659

This is also a problem on macOS, but that's unfixable (and I believe
they provide some truly ancient and out-of-support version anyway) and
you probably want to use the homebrew OpenSSL. Still, meson can now
detect these old versions and even set their version number.
