handshake
---------
Performs a combined in-memory client and server handshake. Each thread performs
1000 such handshakes. It takes 2 arguments:
certsdir - A directory where 2 files exist (servercert.pem and serverkey.pem) for
the server certificate and key. The test/certs directory of the main OpenSSL
source repository contains such files for all supported branches.
threadcount - The number of threads to perform handshakes on in the test
The output is two values: the average time taken for a handshake in us, and the
average handshakes per second performed over the course of the test.
