ssl: Improve PEM cache by validating entries
The PEM cache is now validated by a background process, instead of
always keeping it if it is small enough and clearing it otherwhiss.
That strategy required that small caches where cleared by API function
if a file changes on disk.
However document the clearing API function as it can still be usefull.
