doc: update OpenBSD build docs for 7.3 (external signer support available)
With OpenBSD 7.3, the waitid(2) system call is implemented (see https://github.com/openbsd/src/commit/8112871f19bbd25e86c93d0f901071ca2335a352). This means Boost.Process finally doesn't fail to compile anymore and we can remove the build hint about missing external signer support. Tested on my amd64 machine by reconfiguring / rebuilding master branch and successfully running the functional test wallet_signer.py.

### 1. Configuration
-Note that external signer support is currently not available on OpenBSD, since
-the used header-only library Boost.Process fails to compile (certain system
-calls and preprocessor defines like `waitid()` and `WEXITED` are missing).
