package/proftpd: prevent openssl pthread detection
The proftpd configure script doesn't use pkg-config to detect openssl
libraries. Instead, it just adds -lcrypto. Since openssl may be linked
with pthread, it tries to detect that by calling 'openssl version -f',
which gives the arguments with which openssl was compiled.
Since the openssl executable used is either host-openssl or the system
installed openssl, the output of 'openssl version -f' is useless in
Buildroot context. If the target toolchain doesn't have threads support,
it will wrongly pick up -pthread from host-openssl.
Fortunately there is a simple workaround: --without-openssl-cmdline says
that there is no openssl executable and skips the test, so -pthread is
not added. It turns out -pthread is never needed, even in static linking
cases, because openssl/libressl puts the thread support in a separate
object file that only gets linked in if the program actually uses
threads (which proftpd doesn't).
