Description:
When a attempt to establish or accept a SSL connection fails, the client and/or server only provides a rather uninformative "SSL connection error" message.  Not even the SSL error code is provided. This makes it practically impossible for a regular user to investigate what caused the failure.

How to repeat:
$ mysql -h localhost
ERROR 2026 (HY000): SSL connection error

Suggested fix:
SSL related error messages should contain the SSL error code and a accompanying human-readable string representing the error.
