Hey all!

Since DANE/TLSA has become much more common as a replacement for PKI, I'd
really like it if curl could use (or at least verify) DANE certificates
when requested/available.

In particular, I'm mostly interested in having libcurl expose a way for
users to provide (or request the use of) a set of TLSA records, or somehow
communicate that DANE should be used for the connection (as I'm trying to
have DANE be a native alternative to PKI in Ladybird[1]). The request side
of this is reasonably straightforward with openssl, at least.

I do have a patchset[2] that implements this as a proof of concept (though
with a broader scope that I expect DNS folks will appreciate), and I'd be
happy to implement and help maintain it if there's interest in having this
(or the broader implementation) as a feature.
