Bump minimal OpenSSL version to 1.0.2 in PHP 8.0

Hi,

Just a heads up that I would like to drop support for OpenSSL 1.0.1 in PHP
8.0 as it doesn't seem to be supported by any major distro (think that RHEL
switched to 1.0.2 in 7.4 and not aware about another distro that would
still support 1.0.1).

Please shout if you have any concerns.

Cheers

Jakub

Is this allowed after PHP's Feature Freeze period? Could this drop cause
any userland changes that should be discussed?

As long as it doesn't have a direct impact on userland then I think
this sort of thing is fine until RC 1, maybe even later with
maintainer discretion.

There are no user visible changes AFAIC and this is not a feature so should
be fine IMO.

Except obviously not working with 1.0.1 but no one should be really using
that version...

Given that 1.0.1 had its last release almost four years ago, dropping
support for 1.0.1 looks like a no-brainer to me.
