Bug#42158: leak: SSL_get_peer_certificate() doesn't have matching X509_free()

The problem is that the server failed to follow the rule that
every X509 object retrieved using SSL_get_peer_certificate()
must be explicitly freed by X509_free(). This caused a memory
leak for builds linked against OpenSSL where the X509 object
is reference counted -- improper counting will prevent the
object from being destroyed once the session containing the
peer certificate is freed.

The solution is to explicitly free every X509 object used.
