[openssh/openssl] : Apple keychain patch update should have blocked openssl upgrade — at Initial Version

Description

Evidently I only discover this after upgrading myself:

        # TODO: Update patch 0002-Apple-keychain-integration-other-changes.patch to use OpenSSL 1.1 APIs.

I never realised until now that this patch isn't applied outside of any variants because it so useful, and once you are used to the possibility to store and fetch certificates (or their passphrases) from the keychain you become dependent on it very quickly. (Here's why my local efforts to keep OpenSSL 1.0x and 1.1x installed in parallel pay off, I can simply revert OpenSSH temporarily).

I'll try to find some time to update the patch but will appreciate if someone beats me to it.
