tls: Prevent Go stdlib from overwriting our very first tls ticket key (#785)

[1] https://github.com/golang/go/blob/57e459e02b4b01567f92542f92cd9afde209e193/src/crypto/tls/common.go#L424

[2] has overwritten the first tls ticket key on round N=0, that has previously
been written using [1].

Go's stdlib does not use c.sessionTicketKeys≥1 as indicator if those values had
already been set; initializing that lone SessionTicketKey does the job for for
now.
    If c.serverInit() were called in round N+1 all existing tls ticket keys
would be overwritten (in round N<4 except the very first one, of course).
As member variables of tls.Config are read-only by then, we cannot keep
updating SessionTicketKey as well.

This has been escalated to Go's authors with golang/go#15421 here:
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/15421

Thanks to Matthew Holt for the initial report!
