build: sort: explicitly tag libcrypto dependency

This adds an ELF note as per the UAPI Group's .note.dlopen spec:

  $ readelf -p .note.dlopen src/sort
  String dump of section '.note.dlopen':
    [     4]  y
    [     a]  |@FDO
    [    10]  [{"feature":"random-sort",
                "description":"Support for random sorting",
                "priority":"required",
                "soname":["libcrypto.so.3"]}]

* bootstrap.conf: Add sd-dlopen.
* src/sort.c (DLOPEN_LIBCRYPTO && HAVE_OPENSSL_MD5): Add an ELF note
with SD_ELF_NOTE_DLOPEN() so that packagers can determine the libcrypto
dependency, needed when --random-sort is specified.
* NEWS: Mention the Build-related change.

The configure option '--enable-systemd' is renamed to '--with-systemd'.
The option '--enable-systemd' was a misnomer and is now deprecated.
The 'sort' binary now uses the UAPI Group's .note.dlopen ELF note
to indicate its dependency on libcrypto.
* Noteworthy changes in release 9.11 (2026-04-20) [stable]
