For testing purposes, I've been asked to add a preference to tstclnt, which can be used to force sending of the TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.

Attached patch implements that.

In addition it includes a change for ssltap, which allows it to print it as text when seen.

I should point out that the SCSV will be forced as a result of this; it's not going to be selectively on.  That means that it will appear for a TLS 1.2 handshake.  I think that's exactly the right thing here.
@Martin: Yes, we need to be able to force it with any version, to test if a server turns out to be intolerant to some future version of TLS, it will handle correctly a TLS1.2 with this SCSV.
