This patch creates a new `tlsconfig` package to handle creation of
secure-enough TLS configurations for clients and servers.
The package was created by refactoring TLS code in the client and the
daemon. After this patch, it is expected that all code creating TLS
configurations use this `tlsconfig` package for greater security,
consistency and readability.
On the server side, this fixes a bug where --tlsverify was not taken
into account. Now, if specified, it will require the client to
authenticate.

pkg/ is a collection of utility packages used by the Docker project without being specific to its internals.
Utility packages are kept separate from the docker core codebase to keep it as small and concise as possible.
If some utilities grow larger and their APIs stabilize, they may be moved to their own repository under the
Docker organization, to facilitate re-use by other projects. However that is not the priority.
The directory pkg is named after the same directory in the camlistore project. Since Brad is a core
Go maintainer, we thought it made sense to copy his methods for organizing Go code :) Thanks Brad!
Because utility packages are small and neatly separated from the rest of the codebase, they are a good
place to start for aspiring maintainers and contributors. Get in touch if you want to help maintain them!
