QSslSocket: OpenSSL 1.1 backend
This patch-set implements a new QSslSocket backend based on OpenSSL 1.1.
1. General.
The code in this patch was organized to achieve these (somewhat contradicting)
objectives:
- keep the new code free of #if-ery, as far as possible;
- make it easy to clean away dead code when we're eventually able to retire
out-dated OpenSSL versions;
- reduce the amount of code duplication.
If changes in some file/component were insignificant (~5 one-liners per file),
we still use pp-checks like: #if QT_CONFIG(opensslv11) ... #else ... #endif -
the logic is simple and it's still easy to clean the code if we remove the legacy
back-end. Where it saved #if-ery, we also introduced 'forward-compatible'
macros implementing equivalents of 1.1 functions using older OpenSSL.
In case some class contains a lot of version-specific ifdefs (particularly where
nested #if-ery was complex) we choose to split code into: "pre11" h/cpp files,
"shared" h/cpp files (they preserve their original names, e.g qsslsocket_openssl.cpp)
and "11" h/cpp files. If in future we remove the legacy back-end, "pre11" should be
removed; "shared" and "11" parts - merged.
2. Configuration.
We introduced a new feature 'opensslv11' which complements the pre-existing
'openssl' and 'openssl-linked' features. The 'opensslv11' feature is enabled
by a simple test which either compiles successfully or ends in a compilation
error, depending on a value of the OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER constant. If the
feature was enabled, we also append an additional compilation flag
-DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L to make sure our new code does not contain
deprecated structures, function calls, macro-invocations from OpenSSL < 1.1.
