The code will raise an exception. My patch already implements a more
verbose ValueError that explains the cause of the problem. It's flaw in
code, that calls context.wrap_socket. Erroneous code will no longer pass
silently.

The patch also ensures a valid combination of verify_mode and
check_hostname:

>>> context = ssl.SSLContext(ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1)
>>> context.check_hostname = True
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: check_hostname needs a SSL context with either CERT_OPTIONAL
or CERT_REQUIRED
>>> context.verify_mode = ssl.CERT_REQUIRED
>>> context.check_hostname = True
>>> context.verify_mode = ssl.CERT_NONE
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: Cannot set verify_mode to CERT_NONE when check_hostname is
enabled.


It's only a limitation of the Python API, getpeercert() returns {} for
an unverified cert. OpenSSL can still returns the cert, though.
