ADDED: library(tls), providing all predicates for TLS connections.

The currently available predicates for TLS-connections can be extended
with predicates to load and reason about certificates etc.

+   TLS Clients
+   ===========
+
+   Use tls_client_context/2 to create a TLS context, for example with:
+
+   tls_client_context(Context, [hostname("metalevel.at")])
+
+   Using the context and an existing stream S0 (for example, the
+   result of socket_client_open/3), a TLS stream S can be negotiated
+   with:
+
+   tls_client_negotiate(Context, S0, S)
+
+   S will be an encrypted and authenticated stream with the server.
+
+   The advantage of separating the creation of the client context from
+   negotiating a connection is that the context can be created only once,
+   and quickly reused if needed. This is currently not implemented: In
+   the present implementation, a new internal "Connector" is created for
+   every connection, using the specified hostname.

+   TLS Servers
+   ===========
+
+   Use tls_server_context/2 to create a TLS context, for example with:
+
+   tls_server_context(Context, [pkcs12(Chars)])
+
+   where Chars is a list of characters with the contents of a
+   DER-formatted PKCS #12 archive. The option password(Ps) can be used
+   to specify the password Ps (also a string) for decrypting the key.
+   On some versions of OSX, and potentially also on other platforms,
+   empty passwords are not supported.
+
+   The archive should contain a leaf certificate and its private key,
+   as well any intermediate certificates that should be sent to
+   clients to allow them to build a chain to a trusted root. The chain
+   certificates should be in order from the leaf certificate towards
+   the root.
+
+   PKCS #12 archives typically have the file extension .p12 or .pfx,
+   and can be created with the OpenSSL pkcs12 tool:
+
+   $ openssl pkcs12 -export -out identity.pfx \
+                    -inkey key.pem -in cert.pem -certfile chain_certs.pem
+
+
+   You can use phrase_from_file/3 from library(pio) and seq//1 from
+   library(dcgs) to read the contents of "identity.pfx" into a string:
+
+   phrase_from_file(seq(Chars), "identity.pfx", [type(binary)])
+
+   The obtained context should be treated as an opaque Prolog term.
+
+   Using the context and an existing stream S0 (for example, the
+   result of socket_server_accept/4), a TLS stream S can be negotiated
+   by a Prolog-based server with:
+
+   tls_server_negotiate(Context, S0, S)
+
+   S will be an encrypted and authenticated stream with the client.
+
+   The advantage of separating the creation of the server context from
+   negotiating a connection is that the context can be created only
+   once, and quickly cloned for every incoming connection. This is
+   currently not implemented: In the present implementation, a new context
+   is created for every connection, using the specified parameters.
