Enabling free JSSE

Hi.

I'm just posting this note that I've implemented some missing bits  
needed by the JSSE provider in OpenJDK, and now IcedTea (which is  
using a combination of GNU Classpath's crypto algorithms and Sun's  
SSL provider) can make SSL connections.

This implements the KeyGenerator algorithms SunTlsPrf, etc. The files  
are here:

http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/icedtea/file/5465e5a55631/jce/gnu/ 
java/security/icedtea/

I don't know what Sun's plans are for the missing pieces of the  
PKCS11 provider (where these missing algorithms were), but I'll still  
offer my implementation to OpenJDK just the same.

Thanks.
