Unexpected Client send success in case of SSL error

[torres98]

When using a Client object to send an https request, i've noticed that in some cases the Result object returned is successful, even though the ssl_openssl_error function returns an ssl error. In my specific case the error returned is 92274804 (0x05800074), which corresponds to error:05800074:x509 certificate routines::key values mismatch.
The version used is the 0.26.0

This seems like a big issue in terms of usability, can it be fixed?

@torres98 could you please provide the smallest possible code example and your environment (OS, compiler and build system), so that I could reproduce your problem? Otherwise, I am not able to fix it. :)

After a bit of inverstigation, it looks like it's enough to flip around the client certificate file path with the CA certificate file path when setting up the client. I'm attaching a minimal script (with certificates) that should reproduce the error.
