PHP 8.1 and OpenSSL

Hi all! While the official builds for PHP 8.2 already use OpenSSL 3.0, the PHP 8.1 builds are still using OpenSSL 1.1.1. However, OpenSSL 1.1.1 is only supported till 2023-09-11[1], while PHP 8.1 is supported till 2024-11-25[2]. Although I don't like bumping the OpenSSL version in the middle of PHP 8.1's lifetime, I suppose it is necessary to avoid falling behind security support. And if we do that bump, we better do it sooner than later. So, if there are no unforeseen problems, I suggest to build PHP 8.1.16RC1 with OpenSSL 3.0 (PHP 8.1.15RC1 has already been built with OpenSSL 1.1.1). Thoughts? Objections?
