The entire OpenSSL 3.x line will be down to just 3.5 LTS by the time we ship
v20.

One complicating factor when it comes to OpenSSL is that we need the 1.1.1 API
support in order to keep LibreSSL supported. I have a patch almost done for
separating the two such that we can move them independently of each other, but
summer vacation and other $life stuff delayed it. I'll try to get it posted
shortly so that we can start the discussion around that.
