DESCRIPTION
       SSL_CTX_add_client_custom_ext() adds a custom extension for a TLS
       client with extension type ext_type and callbacks add_cb, free_cb and
       parse_cb.
       SSL_CTX_add_server_custom_ext() adds a custom extension for a TLS
       server with extension type ext_type and callbacks add_cb, free_cb and
       parse_cb.
       In both cases the extension type must not be handled by OpenSSL
       internally or an error occurs.
       SSL_extension_supported() returns 1 if the extension ext_type is
       handled internally by OpenSSL and 0 otherwise.
EXTENSION CALLBACKS
       The callback add_cb is called to send custom extension data to be
       included in ClientHello for TLS clients or ServerHello for servers. The
       ext_type parameter is set to the extension type which will be added and
       add_arg to the value set when the extension handler was added.
       If the application wishes to include the extension ext_type it should
       set *out to the extension data, set *outlen to the length of the
       extension data and return 1.
       If the add_cb does not wish to include the extension it must return 0.
       If add_cb returns -1 a fatal handshake error occurs using the TLS alert
       value specified in *al.
       For clients (but not servers) if add_cb is set to NULL a zero length
       extension is added for ext_type.
       For clients every registered add_cb is always called to see if the
       application wishes to add an extension to ClientHello.
       For servers every registered add_cb is called once if and only if the
       corresponding extension was received in ClientHello to see if the
       application wishes to add the extension to ServerHello. That is, if no
       corresponding extension was received in ClientHello then add_cb will
       not be called.
       If an extension is added (that is add_cb returns 1) free_cb is called
       (if it is set) with the value of out set by the add callback. It can be
       used to free up any dynamic extension data set by add_cb. Since out is
       constant (to permit use of constant data in add_cb) applications may
       need to cast away const to free the data.
       The callback parse_cb receives data for TLS extensions. For TLS clients
       the extension data will come from ServerHello and for TLS servers it
       will come from ClientHello.
       The extension data consists of inlen bytes in the buffer in for the
       extension extension_type.
       If the parse_cb considers the extension data acceptable it must return
       1. If it returns 0 or a negative value a fatal handshake error occurs
       using the TLS alert value specified in *al.
       The buffer in is a temporary internal buffer which will not be valid
       after the callback returns.
NOTES
       The add_arg and parse_arg parameters can be set to arbitrary values
       which will be passed to the corresponding callbacks. They can, for
       example, be used to store the extension data received in a convenient
       structure or pass the extension data to be added or freed when adding
       extensions.
       The ext_type parameter corresponds to the extension_type field of
       RFC5246 et al. It is not a NID.
       If the same custom extension type is received multiple times a fatal
       decode_error alert is sent and the handshake aborts. If a custom
       extension is received in ServerHello which was not sent in ClientHello
       a fatal unsupported_extension alert is sent and the handshake is
       aborted. The ServerHello add_cb callback is only called if the
       corresponding extension was received in ClientHello. This is compliant
       with the TLS specifications.  This behaviour ensures that each callback
       is called at most once and that an application can never send
       unsolicited extensions.
RETURN VALUES
       SSL_CTX_add_client_custom_ext() and SSL_CTX_add_server_custom_ext()
       return 1 for success and 0 for failure. A failure can occur if an
       attempt is made to add the same ext_type more than once, if an attempt
       is made to use an extension type handled internally by OpenSSL or if an
       internal error occurs (for example a memory allocation failure).
       SSL_extension_supported() returns 1 if the extension ext_type is
       handled internally by OpenSSL and 0 otherwise.
