Description

Currently the interface to OpenSSL keeps it's own cache of sessions separate from the cache held in OpenSSL itself.

It needs to be able to purge this cache when the entries expire, so it needs to know the time to figure out how old the cache entries are.

If we eliminate this cache and just use the underlying OpenSSL cache then we wouldn't need to know the time and this code would be platform independent (or at least as platform independent as OpenSSL code itself).
