gnu: openssl: Remove run-time dependency on Perl.

This shrinks the closure of OpenSSL from 154 MiB to 73 MiB.

* gnu/packages/patches/openssl-c-rehash.patch: New file.
* gnu-system.am (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.
* gnu/packages/tls.scm (openssl)[source]: Use it.
  [arguments]: Add 'remove-miscellany' phase.
* gnu/packages/certs.scm (nss-certs)[native-inputs]: Add PERL.

This patch removes the explicit reference to the 'perl' binary,
such that OpenSSL does not retain a reference to Perl.
The 'c_rehash' program is seldom used, but it is used nonetheless
to create symbolic links to certificates, for instance in the 'nss-certs'
package.
