erlang: SSL should be enabled by default

Description
SSL support is currently disabled by default in the portfile. This causes several ports which depend on the erlang port to break or to have only limited usefulness. Such as:
- yaws - no https support
- ejabberd - no TLS, STARTTLS support
- rebar (waiting to be submitted) - won't even work without SSL support
As it is not possible to specify a variant as a dependency the above-mentioned examples can't be fixed on their own. Therefor I suggest to enable SSL by default - its also more conform to the upstream version:
" --with-ssl use SSL (default)" (from ./configure --help)
The attached patches propose to different solutions:
- add ssl as a default variant
- remove the ssl variant and add a no_ssl variant
Does anybody really wants a no_ssl variant? That doesn't make sense to me.
