Clarify README.md text. 

Clarify the text about the implications of building without OpenSSL, and

Portable OpenSSH is built using autoconf and make. It requires a working C compiler, standard library and headers.
``libcrypto`` from either [LibreSSL](https://www.libressl.org/) or [OpenSSL](https://www.openssl.org) may also be used, but OpenSSH may be built without it supporting a subset of crypto algorithms.

For a full list of available flags, run ``configure --help`` but a few of the more frequently-used ones are described below. Some of these flags will require additional libraries and/or headers be installed.
