ssl: Include options form connect/listen/accept in connection_information/[1,2]
Make sure that options only relevant for one role (client|server) is set to undefined when the other role is invoked. As there are many options to ssl, and many are optional, we choose to filter out all undefined options to avoid overwhelming the user with not relevant information. This way there is no need for any special handling of the role specific options which is also nice.
