[issue21308] PEP 466: backport ssl changes

[Arnaud Fontaine]

Arnaud Fontaine added the comment:

Would it be possible to also backport the changes to httplib.py to support TLS SNI as many libraries (including setuptools) relies on this module to download files and some servers reject clients not supporting TLS SNI (such as cloud.github.com)? I have added a patch for Python 2.7.8. Thanks for working on the backports of SSL changes!
