crypto_openssl.c: disable explicit initialization on Windows (CVE-2121-3606)
Commit a4071b ("crypto_openssl: add initialization to pick up local
configuration") added openssl initialization to load configuration
file. However on Windows this file is loaded from user-writable
directory, such as c:\etc\ssl for mingw builds and (for example)
c:\vcpkg\packages\openssl_x64-windows\openvpn.cnf for vcpkg
builds. This could be a security risk.
CVE-2121-3606 has been assigned to acknowledge this risk.
Since aforementioned commit implements a niche feature which might
be better solved with CryptoAPI on Windows, make this code conditional
(for now).
