It has been found that under some rare error circumstances,
SSL_do_handshake() could return with SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ without
even trying to call the read function, causing permanent wakeups
that prevent the process from sleeping.
It was established that this only happens if the retry flags are
not systematically cleared in both directions upon any I/O attempt,
but, given the lack of documentation on this topic, it is hard to
say if this rather strange behavior is expected or not, otherwise
why wouldn't the library always clear the flags by itself before
proceeding?
In addition, this only seems to affect OpenSSL 1.1.0 and above,
and does not affect wolfSSL nor aws-lc.
