2012-10-19Disable TLS Session Tickets, which we were apparently getting for freeNick Mathewson
OpenSSL 1.0.0 added an implementation of TLS session tickets, a "feature" that let session resumption occur without server-side state by giving clients an encrypted "ticket" that the client could present later to get the session going again with the same keys as before. OpenSSL was giving the keys to decrypt these tickets the lifetime of the SSL contexts, which would have been terrible for PFS if we had long-lived SSL contexts. Fortunately, we don't. Still, it's pretty bad. We should also drop these, since our use of the extension stands out with our non-use of session cacheing. Found by nextgens. Bugfix on all versions of Tor when built with openssl 1.0.0 or later. Fixes bug 7139.
