curl in pak-libs too old

[jeroen]

The next version of the curl package will require at least libcurl (>= 7.73) but static build in pak-libs has 7.68.

	# libcurl now -------------------------------------------------------------
	RUN wget https://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.68.0.tar.gz
	RUN tar xzf curl-*.tar.gz && rm curl-*.tar.gz
	RUN apk add pkgconfig

	./configure --enable-static --disable-shared; \
	make && \

Perhaps we can also upgrade openssl (or switch to mbedtls or something) to fix #787

I can't compile a working static build with newer curl or newer openssl.

[jeroen]

Maybe I can help? What doesn't work about it?

[gaborcsardi]

It crashes on glibc systems.

fb3c86f reverts the commit that updated libcurl and openssl.

[jeroen]

I suspect the crash is caused by the openssl ABI change. Could we try updating libcurl alone? The current release 8.14.1 is very stable.

[gaborcsardi]

AFAIR I tried that as well, and I convinced myself that static musl builds are not going to work on glibc, in general. We'll need to have a separate build for musl and another one for glibc.
