Ah! I actually don't want these APIs to look the same. In the long term,
I would like SSLContext to become the preferred API, with
ssl.wrap_socket only being supported for backwards compatibility.
The huge parameter list in ssl.wrap_socket() is really a mistake due to
it having evolved quite organically.
