Research direction

Start by reviewing the attached SSL-client-side-SSL-session-resumption.patch and related implement_ssl_session_reuse patches, then inspect the ftplib behavior they target. Confirm the expected client-side session reuse behavior and use the available patch material to identify the required tests; done means FTP_TLS supports SSL session resumption without regressing existing connections.
