[RFC]: Upgrade OpenBLAS dependency

Description

OpenBLAS 0.2.19 is almost eight years out of date.

As a result, I ran into issues running make install-deps-openblas. See truncated error logs below:

... 
Makefile:488: warning: undefined variable `CCBLASOBJS'
Makefile:488: warning: undefined variable `CCBLASOBJS_P'

Makefile:488: warning: undefined variable `CXBLASOBJS'
Makefile:488: warning: undefined variable `CXBLASOBJS_P'

Upgrading to 0.3.27 resulted in successful installation. I propose to upgrade the repo URL, checksum, and version to result in successful OpenBLAS installation.

Do we need to lock down more build flags along with this? See:

Are there other compatibility issues/concerns/validations which would need to accompany this change?

Other

No.

Checklist

I have read and understood the Code of Conduct.
Searched for existing issues and pull requests.
The issue name begins with RFC:.

@rreusser This would be a welcome addition. And indeed, upgrading OpenBLAS has been a TODO.

@rreusser I originally based everything on how Julia manages OpenBLAS: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/master/deps/openblas.mk

You can probably cross-reference there to see if we are missing anything in terms of build flags.

...and no backward compatibility concerns we need to work about. Previous OpenBLAS support via stdlib was always experimental.
