Description

A verify_callback function is added, but it is not called. Find the reason (other than it is commented out currently).

The relevant OpenSSL reference is:
https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.0.2/man3/SSL_CTX_set_verify.html

Contributor guide

Research direction

Start by locating the commented-out verify_callback and tracing how certificate verification is configured. Compare that setup with the referenced SSL_CTX_set_verify documentation, then reproduce a certificate-handling failure. Done means the callback is invoked and the resulting certificate error is reported.
