Because OpenSSL libs are not linked at this point. The feature could still be (probably) force-enabled manually by setting `EGD_SOCKET` and `HAVE_RAND_EGD`, and using a sufficiently obsolete OpenSSL version. Closes #xxxxx

autotools detects Do we want to also delete autotools detections bits? and the actual use inside |
Yes let's do that. I think that was only for OpenSSL before 1.1 and already then I believe very few actually used this. |

EGD is Entropy Gathering Daemon, a socket-based entropy source supported by pre-OpenSSL v1.1 versions and now deprecated. curl also deprecated it a while ago. Its detection in CMake was broken all along because OpenSSL libs were not linked at the point of feature check. Delete detection from both cmake and autotools, along with the related source snippet, and the `--with-egd-socket=` `./configure` option. Closes curl#11556
