PROTON-2021: [c] Improve TLS default security
- Default ssl to use system certificates unless overridden with
pn_ssl_domain_set_trusted_ca_db()
- Change pn_ssl_init() so that NULL domain gives a sensible default
> [c] Make SSL/TLS usage more secure by default

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-2021
> Project: Qpid Proton
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: proton-c
> Reporter: Andrew Stitcher
> Assignee: Andrew Stitcher
> Priority: Major
>
> There are some aspects of using TLS with proton-c that are awkward and by
> default less secure than they could be.
> A good example of this is that it is tricky to set up to verify peer names
> against the system default ca certificate list. Even though this is carefully
> set up under many (most?) modern OS distributions.
> Another example is that for a client on the internet verifying peer names is
> the only safe way to use TLS, but this is not the default.
