As we're moving to TCP/TLS support, we should also investigate using native 
encryption libraries instead of shipping our own. That's OpenSSL for Linux, 
SecureTransport for Apple OSes, and Microsoft may have something for Windows 
(I'm not familiar, Qt ships OpenSSL on Windows).

This would allow us to offload responsibility for keeping the encryption 
software to the OS vendor. It also has benefits because encryption routines may 
be subject to export regulations in some countries.

The feature that required mBed TLS should be reverted and rewritten using the 
native SSL/TLS routines, per OS. The architecture for that change was not 
reviewed in the mailing list.
