Update style guide note on files which match OpenSSL.

They match the new style not the old EAY style now. They're also not likely to be reformatted. It's just the legacy ASN.1 stuff now and we're intentionally not doing much with those. (The old text was written back before the SSL stack had been reformatted.)
