Conn.Close sends an encrypted "close notify" to signal secure EOF.
But writing that involves acquiring mutexes (handshake mutex + the
c.out mutex) and writing to the network. But if the reason we're
calling Conn.Close is because the network is already being
problematic, then Close might block, waiting for one of those mutexes.
Instead of blocking, and instead of introducing new API (at least for
now), distinguish between a normal Close (one that sends a secure EOF)
and a resource-releasing destructor-style Close based on whether there
are existing Write calls in-flight.
Because io.Writer and io.Closer aren't defined with respect to
concurrent usage, a Close with active Writes is already undefined, and
should only be used during teardown after failures (e.g. deadlines or
cancelations by HTTP users). A normal user will do a Write then
serially do a Close, and things are unchanged for that case.
This should fix the leaked goroutines and hung net/http.Transport
requests when there are network errors while making TLS requests.

Strengthening VerifyHostname exposed the fact that for resumed

Do that.
This change just saves the verified chains in the client's session
cache. It does not re-verify the certificates when resuming a
connection.
There are arguments both ways about this: we want fast, light-weight
resumption connections (thus suggesting that we shouldn't verify) but
it could also be a little surprising that, if the verification config
is changed, that would be ignored if the same session cache is used.
On the server side we do re-verify client-auth certificates, but the
situation is a little different there. The client session cache is an
object in memory that's reset each time the process restarts. But the
server's session cache is a conceptual object, held by the clients, so
can persist across server restarts. Thus the chance of a change in
verification config being surprisingly ignored is much higher in the
server case.

Prior to TLS 1.2, the handshake had a pleasing property that one could
incrementally hash it and, from that, get the needed hashes for both
the CertificateVerify and Finished messages.
TLS 1.2 introduced negotiation for the signature and hash and it became
possible for the handshake hash to be, say, SHA-384, but for the
CertificateVerify to sign the handshake with SHA-1. The problem is that
one doesn't know in advance which hashes will be needed and thus the
handshake needs to be buffered.
Go ignored this, always kept a single handshake hash, and any signatures
over the handshake had to use that hash.
However, there are a set of servers that inspect the client's offered
signature hash functions and will abort the handshake if one of the
server's certificates is signed with a hash function outside of that
set. https://robertsspaceindustries.com/ is an example of such a server.
Clearly not a lot of thought happened when that server code was written,
but its out there and we have to deal with it.
This change decouples the handshake hash from the CertificateVerify
hash. This lays the groundwork for advertising support for SHA-384 but
doesn't actually make that change in the interests of reviewability.
Updating the advertised hash functions will cause changes in many of the
testdata/ files and some errors might get lost in the noise. This change
only needs to update four testdata/ files: one because a SHA-384-based
handshake is now being signed with SHA-256 and the others because the
TLS 1.2 CertificateRequest message now includes SHA-1.
This change also has the effect of adding support for
client-certificates in SSLv3 servers. However, SSLv3 is now disabled by
default so this should be moot.
It would be possible to avoid much of this change and just support
SHA-384 for the ServerKeyExchange as the SKX only signs over the nonces
and SKX params (a design mistake in TLS). However, that would leave Go
in the odd situation where it advertised support for SHA-384, but would
only use the handshake hash when signing client certificates. I fear
that'll just cause problems in the future.
Much of this code was written by davidben@ for the purposes of testing
BoringSSL.

ECDSA is unsafe to use if an entropy source produces predictable

This is a minimalist (in terms of patch size) solution, though
not the most parsimonious in its use of primitives:
- csprng_key = ChopMD-256(SHA2-512(priv.D||entropy||hash))
- reader = AES-256-CTR(k=csprng_key)
This, however, provides at most 128-bit collision-resistance,
so that Adv will have a term related to the number of messages
signed that is significantly worse than plain ECDSA. This does
not seem to be of any practical importance.
ChopMD-256(SHA2-512(x)) is used, rather than SHA2-256(x), for
two sets of reasons:
*Practical:* SHA2-512 has a larger state and 16 more rounds; it
is likely non-generically stronger than SHA2-256. And, AFAIK,
cryptanalysis backs this up. (E.g., [Biryukov] gives a
distinguisher on 47-round SHA2-256 with cost < 2^85.) This is
well below a reasonable security-strength target.
*Theoretical:* [Coron] and [Chang] show that Chop-MD(F(x)) is
indifferentiable from a random oracle for slightly beyond the
birthday barrier. It seems likely that this makes a generic
security proof that this construction remains UF-CMA is
possible in the indifferentiability framework.

Many thanks to Payman Mohassel for reviewing this construction;
any mistakes are mine, however. And, as he notes, reusing the
private key in this way means that the generic-group (non-RO)
proof of ECDSA's security given in [Brown] no longer directly
applies.

Fix TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV check when comparing the client version to the
default max version. This enables the TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV check by default
in servers that do not explicitly set a max version in the tls config.

A new attack on CBC padding in SSLv3 was released yesterday[1]. Go only
supports SSLv3 as a server, not as a client. An easy fix is to change
the default minimum version to TLS 1.0 but that seems a little much
this late in the 1.4 process as it may break some things.
Thus this patch adds server support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV[2] -- a
mechanism for solving the fallback problem overall. Chrome has
implemented this since February and Google has urged others to do so in
light of yesterday's news.
With this change, clients can indicate that they are doing a fallback
connection and Go servers will be able to correctly reject them.
