TOOLS_LIBCRYPTO=n works for me with this patch, and I just
double-checked and verified that mkimage is compiled/linked without OpenSSL.

The actual problem is that TOOLS_LIBCRYPTO=n is broken, and would be
further broken by adding sunxi_toc0.o to dumpimage-mkimage-objs. Fixing
that requires moving objects that depend on OpenSSL to LIBCRYPTO_OBJS,
and adding sunxi_toc0.o there in patch 2.

The Makefile changes are needed for TOC0 support. The Kconfig changes
are not. And I think the only controversial part of this patch is the
"select TOOLS_LIBCRYPTO" lines. So I suggest omitting all of the Kconfig
changes from this patch (and removing those lines from the commit
message). I can send v4 or you can fix it up.

Regards,
Samuel
