75.1 TLS для SMTP: STARTTLS и неявный TLS (465)

- SmtpServer: STARTTLS (RFC 3207) — SslHandler ставится сразу после того,
  как ответ 220 ушёл открытым текстом; сессия начинается заново; строки,
  присланные открытым текстом вместе со STARTTLS, не выполняются, соединение
  закрывается (CVE-2011-0411); свежий декодер строк без остатков открытого текста
- неявный TLS на SMTPS_PORT (RFC 8314); AUTH — только внутри TLS
  (или SMTP_AUTH_WITHOUT_TLS); Received: ESMTPS/ESMTPSA
- SmtpTls: свой сертификат (MAIL_TLS_CERT/KEY) или самоподписанный,
  создаётся один раз в MAIL_TLS_DIR (в образе /app/data/tls); TLS 1.2/1.3
- тесты: STARTTLS + AUTH, подмешанный открытый текст, JavaMail со
  starttls.required, порт 465, переиспользование сертификата (38 всего)
- проверено вживую: openssl s_client -starttls smtp и порт 465, TLSv1.3
