    configure.in: Remove obsolete warning if OpenSSL is detected
    
    Recent OpenSSL versions are licensed under the Apache 2 license
    so the "special exception" from section 3 of the GPLv2 isn't needed
    and a Privoxy binary linked to OpenSSL can be distributed under the
    GPLv3 or later.
