That'd let us kill a good deal of code, and really get pyOpenSSL down to just an SSL layer, which is all we care about anyways.

Right now there aren’t any functions that let you convert to cryptography X509 objects from PyOpenSSL ones or vice versa: only for keys. If we got those for the various X509 objects then I think that’d be a reasonable thing to do.
