On the wire, domain names are always of the ASCII xn--mumble variety. The
corresponding Unicode is a matter of user display. Thus, to the extent
that hostnames are exchanged in SNI, they are ASCII host names. The RFC
is clear as mud of course. :-(
So SSL_set_tlsext_host_name() is a valid ASCII domain name, that may
encode a Unicode name, but is not directly unicode.
