  Description     : Python wrapper for OpenSSL

>From the upstream webpage:

Experimental Python wrapper for OpenSSL. Do NOT use for anything
serious. This code has not been properly tested/reviewed and is
absolutely not production ready. For example, SslClient does not
properly check SSL certificates.

So the current state may not be good for anything but our experimental
branch, if at all.

I'm though filing this RFP, because it's a dependency of the neat sslyze
(https://github.com/nabla-c0d3/sslyze, RFP at
https://bugs.debian.org/765787) and I want to document that fact.
