build-master.py - fix ssl not working for 7.1 version

[david-ruiz-cko]

This pull request enhances the reliability of the PHP 7.1 build process on Windows by improving the setup and verification of the OpenSSL extension and Composer fallback configuration. The changes ensure that the build workflow can handle common SSL issues with PHP 7.1 on Windows, automatically applying workarounds and verifying functionality to prevent build failures.

Improvements to OpenSSL setup and verification:

• The workflow now attempts to enable the OpenSSL extension before downloading and installing the required DLLs, and explicitly copies the necessary DLL files into the PHP directory if found. If installation fails, it disables the extension and adds fallback SSL configuration.
• After attempting setup, the workflow tests if the OpenSSL extension is actually loaded and working. If not, it disables the extension and applies a fallback configuration to ensure continued functionality.

Enhancements to Composer and dependency installation:

• The workflow always configures Composer to use HTTP fallback settings for PHP 7.1 on Windows, due to persistent SSL issues, and adds additional verification to switch to an alternative package source if HTTP also fails.
• The dependency installation step for PHP 7.1 on Windows now uses the --ignore-platform-reqs flag to avoid platform compatibility errors during installation.
