openssl support

Hi again,

When I specify --ssl then I expect SSL secured connection or
nothing (displaying error if such connection can't be established).

Right now if ssl can't be estabilished then unsecure connection
is used which seems really bad choice.

[root@maja certs]# mysql -u arekm -p -h db.sys....pl --ssl

Second thing are client user certificates. I need only crypted
connection and no key/cert authentification (just normal user/pass
auth). Why I need to specify ssl-key and ssl-cert on client side
in that case? These are only needed to achieve key/cert
authentification (AFAIK) ... just like in web browsers.

Thanks for great db server.
