SSL: optional ssl_client_certificate for ssl_verify_client.

Browse Source 
Starting from TLSv1.1 (as seen since draft-ietf-tls-rfc2246-bis-00),
the "certificate_authorities" field grammar of the CertificateRequest
message was redone to allow no distinguished names.  In TLSv1.3, with
the restructured CertificateRequest message, this can be similarly
done by optionally including the "certificate_authorities" extension.
This allows to avoid sending DNs at all.

In practice, aside from published TLS specifications, all supported
SSL/TLS libraries allow to request client certificates with an empty
DN list for any protocol version.  For instance, when operating in
TLSv1, this results in sending the "certificate_authorities" list as
a zero-length vector, which corresponds to the TLSv1.1 specification.
Such behaviour goes back to SSLeay.

The change relaxes the requirement to specify at least one trusted CA
certificate in the ssl_client_certificate directive, which resulted in
sending DNs of these certificates (closes #142).  Instead, all trusted
CA certificates can be specified now using the ssl_trusted_certificate
directive if needed.  A notable difference that certificates specified
in ssl_trusted_certificate are always loaded remains (see 3648ba7db).
