Intent to update security/openssl-devel to 1.1.1

Hi All,

I've been maintaining a port for OpenSSL 1.1.1 for myself for a while, 
the port is at version 1.1.1.p3 as of today (see 
https://github.com/Sp1l/ports/tree/master/security/openssl-master). It 
works well with ${USESDIR}/apache.mk and DEFAULT_VERSIONS= 
ssl=openssl-devel.

A while ago I did 2 exp-runs of the complete ports tree, one with 1.1.0g 
and the other with 1.1.1.p2. Both on the same revision of 2018-03-18. 
The output was compared to identify ports that fail with 1.1.1.p2 that 
weren't already failing with 1.1.0 too. The result is a mere 44 ports, 
of which I currently believe most can be attributed to qt4-/qt5-network 
failure.
Failures and links to poudriere logs here: 
https://wiki.freebsd.org/OpenSSL/1.1.1
(for reference, 1.1.0 activity documented here: 
https://wiki.freebsd.org/OpenSSL/1.1.0)

As the delta in fall-out between 1.1.0 and 1.1.1 is so limited I intend, 
as maintainer of the security/openssl and security/openssl-devel ports, 
to update the security/openssl-devel port to 1.1.1 when that becomes the 
release.

I'm open to suggestions on keeping both version 1.1.0 and 1.1.1 in the 
tree, but with current naming scheme that would be neigh impossible. The 
openssl-devel port was created in discussion with portmgr (alternative 
would have been security/openssl110), I'm open to changes in the naming 
too.

Any feedback appreciated.
Feedback that you actually use the -devel port would be great, I have no 
clue if anyone uses it...

Cheers, Bernard.

PS. kde@ in cc hoping they can validate my assertion on qt5-network
