openssl: fix thread-safety bugs in error-handling
ERR_error_string with NULL parameter is not thread-safe. The library
writes the string into some static buffer. Two threads doing this at
once may clobber each other and run into problems. Switch to
ERR_error_string_n which avoids this problem and is explicitly
bounds-checked.
Also clean up some remnants of OpenSSL 0.9.5 around here. A number of
comments (fixed buffer size, explaining that ERR_error_string_n was
added in a particular version) date to when ossl_strerror tried to
support pre-ERR_error_string_n OpenSSLs.
Closes #1424
