*) New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
validated when establishing a connection.

Use one of these three options to control whether Certificate Transparency (CT)
is disabled (-noct), enabled but not enforced (-requestct), or enabled and
enforced (-requirect). If CT is enabled, signed certificate timestamps (SCTs)
will be requested from the server and invalid SCTs will cause the connection to
be aborted. If CT is enforced, at least one valid SCT from a recognised CT log
(see B<-ctlogfile>) will be required or the connection will be aborted.
Enabling CT also enables OCSP stapling, as this is one possible delivery method
for SCTs.
