 In 0.2.2, while in state OR_CONN_STATE_TLS_SERVER_RENEGOTIATING, if we get
 any data we just let it sit in the inbuf.  We should instead close the
 connection if the data arrives before the handshake, since this is either
 a failed attempt at a v3 handshake, or an attempt to bloat our buffer and
 make us waste ram.

 On 0.2.3, this fix isn't necessary, since any data arriving will get
 treated as an attempt at a v3 handshake.
