7.3.3 Obtaining Session Information
Most of the times it is desirable to know the security properties of
the current established session. This includes the underlying ciphers
and the protocols involved. That is the purpose of the following
function. Note that this function will print meaningful values only
if called after a successful gnutls_handshake.
