"Require" OpenSSL 1.1.1 and tolerate/warn 1.0.2.
OpenSSL 1.0.2 is EOL since end of 2019, so warn if it is to be used at configure and compile time. The assumption is that 1.0.2 may still be in use by maintainers that backport security fixes. Also warn, at configure time, about "OpenSSL" API-compatible libraries that do not declare TLS1_3_VERSION.

Faulty commit 418cda65f752e367fa663fd13884a45fcbc39ddd.
Reported by Stefan Thurner.
+## CHANGES:
+* Fetchmail documentation was updated to require OpenSSL 1.1.1.
+ OpenSSL 1.0.2 reached End Of Life status at the end of the year 2019.
+ Fetchmail will tolerate, but warn about, 1.0.2 for now on the assumption that
+ distributors backport security fixes as the need arises.
+ Fetchmail will also warn if another SSL library that is API-compatible
+ with OpenSSL lacks TLS v1.3 support.
