Force argv to be an array of long pointers on VMS
Reverts commit 087ca80ad83071dde0bb6bc1c28c743caa00eaf8 Instead of battling the odd format of argv given to main() in default P64 mode, tell the compiler to make it an array of 64-bit pointers when compiling in P64 mode. A note is added in NOTES.VMS regarding minimum DEC C version. Reviewed-by: Andy Polyakov <appro@openssl.org>

An ANSI C compiled is needed among other things. This means that
VAX C is not and will not be supported.

Please avoid using C RTL feature logical names DECC$* when building
and testing OpenSSL. Most of all, they can be disruptive when
