Description
I want this for testing. Today I found that I had a totally useless unit test because of a discrepancy between my FakeContext(Factory) and a real context factory from Twisted. The only reason the fake class exists is that Context isn't really very introspectable...
Like #61, there's a good chance this requires cryptography to expose some stuff first.

Research direction
Start with the Context object and the FakeContext(Factory) mentioned in the issue, then compare them with the real context factory from Twisted. Check issue #61 and the cryptography dependency to identify which options must be exposed. Done means a Context API provides the needed options for tests and supports parity with the real factory.
