[Development] Suggestion: switch binary builds to OpenSSL 1.1 in Qt 5.11

[Andy Shaw]

+ 1 from me too.

Is it clear enough from the docs for 5.9  and 5.10 that it does not support OpenSSL 1.1? In case someone still uses that and ends  up replacing their existing installation of OpenSSL without realizing.

As $SUBJECT says.

Only for 5.11 onward, so shouldn't affect the 5.6 and 5.9 LTS (which don't
have OpenSSL 1.1 support anyway) or any 5.10.x releases still to come.

As a bonus side-effect, users who hadn't realised they have an old, not-up-to-
date OpenSSL will have to fix the issue.

+1 those who need to use an older version will still be able to build their own. We really need to start actively pushing people to 1.1.

Cheers

Rich.
