To speedup the depends cached builds, remove some some clutter from the package
files. This mainly incldues removing all the shared libraries and .la
linker files. It also gives stronger guarantees that monero only links
the static libs without any external rvalues.
- This addresses https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv/20190226.txt (CVE: 2019-1559) which impacted all versions of openssl-1.0.
Note that this does not address CVE-2019-1543 (https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-1543), which impacts all versions of openssl 1.1 through 1.1.0j and 1.1.1b.
The above (1.1) is patched in openssl, where it was marked as low severity. Similar issues possibly present in monero, should be looked into w.r.t. CVE-2019-1543.

add two RSA based ciphers for Windows/depends compatibility
also enforce server cipher ordering
also set ECDH to auto because vtnerd says it is good :)
When built with the depends system, openssl does not include any
cipher on the current whitelist, so add this one, which fixes the
problem, and does seem sensible.
It can allocate a lot when getting a lot of connections
(in particular, the stress test on windows apparently pushes
that memory to actual use, rather than just allocated)
When closing connections due to exiting, the IO service is
already gone, so the data exchange needed for a gracious SSL
shutdown cannot happen. We just close the socket in that case.
An override for the wallet to daemon connection is provided, but not for
other SSL contexts. The intent is to prevent users from supplying a
system CA as the "user" whitelisted certificate, which is less secure
since the key is controlled by a third party.
This allows "chain" certificates to be used with the fingerprint
whitelist option. A user can get a system-ca signature as backup while
clients explicitly whitelist the server certificate. The user specified
CA can also be combined with fingerprint whitelisting.
