Description:
MySQL does not currently support setting the TLS SNI (Server Name Indicator) field in the ClientHello packet sent during the TLS handshake.

How to repeat:
Documentation does not list an API for doing this today

Suggested fix:
Allow specifying the Server Name Indicator field when performing an SSL handshake via an API extension. MySQL can leverage this information when performing admission control to avoid performing the SSL handshake for usernames/databases that are above the connection limit. This allows the connection to be terminated before the SSL handshake is performed, which is the most expensive portion of the connection establishment process.
