Pull request on github: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/452

The existing API for managing RFC 5077 TLS ticket keys is cumbersome:
callers must either specify a key once at startup or they must implement a
complicated callback API.

This new API allows a caller to set a list of TLS ticket keys. The first
key in the list is preferred, and any other keys in the list will be
accepted with an upgrade to a ticket with the preferred key. This scheme
allows groups of servers to implement seamless key rotation strategies.

The original patch comes from Twitter's https://github.com/twitter/sslconfig
