Add SSL/SSL_CTX_use_cert_and_key()
Add functions that will do the work of assigning certificate, privatekey and chain certs to an SSL or SSL_CTX. If no privatekey is given, use the publickey. This will permit the keys to pass validation for both ECDSA and RSA. If a private key has already been set for the certificate, it is discarded. A real private key can be set later. This is an all-or-nothing setting of these parameters. Unlike the SSL/SSL_CTX_use_certificate() and SSL/SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey() functions, the existing cert or privatekey is not modified (i.e. parameters copied). This permits the existing cert/privatekey to be replaced. It replaces the sequence of: * SSL_use_certificate() * SSL_use_privatekey() * SSL_set1_chain() And may actually be faster, as multiple checks are consolidated. The private key can be NULL, if so an ENGINE module needs to contain the actual private key that is to be used. Note that ECDH (using the certificate's ECDSA key) ciphers do not work without the private key being present, based on how the private key is used in ECDH. ECDH does not offer PFS; ECDHE ciphers should be used instead.
