Checking Mac OS host for configuring OpenSSL

OpenSSL can't automatically detect the architecture of Mac OS systems, so
as it suggests on its Wiki, it needs some help for doing that. With this
commit, we are checking the build on Mac OS with the presence of `otool'
(Mac OS's linker). If it's there, we'll add the OpenSSL configuration
options suggested by OpenSSL's Wiki.
