Fixes issues with dynamic loading OpenSSL. Fixes #13903. (#13919) [backport]

This fixes at least a couple of issues:

* Procs loaded from the DLL being used even when the pointer is nil.
* The actual issue (#13903) which appeared to cause stack corruption on
  Android 7.1.1 with OpenSSL 1.1.1f. The change that fixed this was the
  move to loading the procs in `sslSym`.
