Description

As per https://www.openssl.org/policies/releasestrat.html:

Version 1.1.1 will be supported until 2023-09-11 (LTS).

Therefore, Git for Windows will need to migrate away from that version. MSYS2 already did, which does cause some friction: Git for Windows' mingw-w64-curl depends on mingw-w64-openssl and expects the respective .dll files with the 1.1 version encoded in the file name, while MSYS2's, say, mingw-w64-osslsigncode depends on the same package but expects the version number 3 to be encoded in the .dll files' names.

To offer a smooth transition, let's rename Git for Windows' mingw-w64-openssl and openssl packages, rebuild the packages that depend on them, and then reintroduce the packages but this time shipping OpenSSL v3.
