I've been just looking at this due to libsnmp-perl deps on libssl. The perl .so files link against libcrypto.so but they don't share any symbols so I don't think this linking is required (or openssl used by perl at all). The 1.1.0 support should not be that complicated but if you have packages that depend on it and already moved on to libssl1.0-dev I would say to keep this package with libssl1.0-dev for Stretch.
