openssl: add ca-certificates dep

Corinna,

Now that ca-certificates provides /usr/ssl/cert.pem[1][2], which is the 
hardcoded location in libcrypto, AFAICS libopenssl100 should depend on 
ca-certificates.  Note that Fedora does this as well[3], as do our 
libgnutls28 and libnss3 packages.  This would assure that e.g. 
wget.x86_64 works OOTB with HTTPS URIs.

This can be fixed for future releases by adding ca-certificates to 
libopenssl100_REQUIRES, but this should be added to 
x86*/release/openssl/libopenssl100/setup.hint now.  Agreed?
