[opkg][opkg-0.4.5 PATCH] configure.ac: announce openssl sig checking deprecation

[Alex Stewart]

Assert that OpenSSL signature checking is a relatively unused feature by
opkg integrators. Further, the OpenSSL licenses have never been
accomodating to static builders.

So begin to deprecate OpenSSL signature checking by first announcing
our intentions to builders with an AutoConf warning.
