Convenience constructor for SSL connections that uses keyword arguments to convey client context initialization information. Uses sensible defaults for the protocol configuration, enables certificate verification and sends a virtual hostname by default.
The hostname and port arguments determine the network address to connect to. See ssl-make-client-context* for a description of the other keyword arguments.
