By defaulting to libressl here, you guarantee that users who install this port with the https variant first will get libressl, and if they then install any other port that depends on *ssl, the binaries they receive will be broken and will need to be recompiled from source.

libtls.dylib will not be removed from libressl* ports. OpenNTPD requires
LibreSSL to use its HTTPS constraint feature and my libtls port is just
a workaround.

The plan is if @jeremyhu is willing to maintain libtls too it can be
added to the ports tree and used by default in the variant. If not, the
variant only works with LibreSSL.
