Yes rpm does have openssl as a PACKAGECONFIG, but other packages such
as python-native are not setup with PACKAGECONFIG.

I think the best solution that would cover your request but also not
add any potential confusion for users, would be to have the
PACKAGECONFIG for u-boot but default to having the config enabled. And
for users who want to completely remove the openssl dependency from
their chain they are able to do so.
