       _S_S_L___s_t_a_t_e___s_t_r_i_n_g_(_) returns a 6 letter string indicating the current
       state of the SSL object ssssll.

       _S_S_L___s_t_a_t_e___s_t_r_i_n_g___l_o_n_g_(_) returns a string indicating the current state
       of the SSL object ssssll.

       During its use, an SSL objects passes several states. The state is
       internally maintained. Querying the state information is not very
       informative before or when a connection has been established. It how-
       ever can be of significant interest during the handshake.

       When using non-blocking sockets, the function call performing the hand-
       shake may return with SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ or SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE con-
       dition, so that SSL_state_string[_long]() may be called.

       For both blocking or non-blocking sockets, the details state informa-
       tion can be used within the info_callback function set with the
       _S_S_L___s_e_t___i_n_f_o___c_a_l_l_b_a_c_k_(_) call.
