Enable -Wstring-concatenation and silence warning.

Newer versions of Clang have a warning to detect "suspicious" uses of
string concatenation, where they think a comma or so was missing. It
flags a false positive in x509_test.cc, which we can silence with
parentheses. Fuchsia builds with this warning enabled, so enable it to
catch future instances.

I couldn't find official documentation on when this was added, but
empirically it's in my clang-12 but not my clang-11. That's recent
enough that adding a version check seems prudent. Unfortunately,
version-detecting Clang is complex because AppleClang uses completely
different versions. There's a handy table on Wikipedia that maps them.

BoringSSL

BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.

Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.

Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.

BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.

Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
