Description

**Build Error Description**

The default version of OpenSSL in HomeBrew is now OpenSSL v3. OpenSSL v1.1 is still available as `openssl@1.1`.

Update: updated the Wiki page https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-core/wiki/Building-on-macOS to explicitly use `openssl@1.1` since we do not support OpenSSL v3 yet.

**Build Environment**
Details about the build environment, including the relevant required libraries. Much of this information can be found in the `CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log`.

Research direction

Start with the linked Building on macOS wiki page and reproduce the reported build error using Homebrew's OpenSSL v3 on macOS. Check the project's build configuration and dependency requirements to determine whether OpenSSL v3 can be supported; done means documenting confirmed guidance or defining the required compatibility work.
