Expose OPENSSL_timegm in posix_time.h

Ok so this one is purely for keeping this the same between forks.
Boring today doesn't need this (although some of our outside
uses might be able to use it). Effectively, this function
is the same as converting to a posix time, followed by a safe
check to see if you can put the result in a time_t.

posix_time.h is about to get added as public in LibreSSL, and
while not strictly necessary there because they could inline
what it does, Libre is finding that may be needed in rpki-client,
ocsp-client, as well as libtls (including for libtls portable).

  In the interests of keeping the same API in the same file, Libre
would like this to be here so it's just consistent from both places.

BoringSSL

BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.

Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.

Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.

BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.

Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
