[New-bugs-announce] [issue25114] asynico: add ssl_object extra info

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor:

Attached patch adds the "ssl_object" extra information to SSL sockets. For the legacy SSL implementation, it's a ssl.SSLSocket instance. For the new SSL implementation, it's a ssl.SSLObject instance.

ssl.SSLObject and ssl.SSLSocket have a similar but different API. Both classes provide important methods like getpeercert().

This issue fixes a regressions of Python 3.5 compared to Python 3.4 in asyncio SSL sockets: it's no more possible to get the peer certificate as a binary object (only as text). See the issue #22768.

My patch adds also unit tests on SSL extra info. We only had poor unit tests on these info.
