[Development] Adding support for a new OpenSSL API

[Scott Deboy]

I'm working on adding support in QT5 for a new OpenSSL API supporting TLS Authorization Extensions (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5878) and would appreciate guidance on how to best expose this API, as it will only be available in the very latest versions of OpenSSL.

I also would also appreciate guidance on the correct way to implement this in QT5:

The new OpenSSL API is callback-driven and modifies the handshake process by adding hello extensions and supplemental data.  One additional complexity is that each side needs to be able to read the other side's hello extensions and (in the client case) supplemental data prior to generating its own hello extension and supplemental data (all part of the handshake).

I have reviewed the mailing list archives and read http://qt-project.org/wiki/Hacking-on-Qts-SSL-Support which is helpful, but was hoping for more guidance.
 
Thanks much,

Scott
