- Adding a command line option for users to enforce tls/ssl connections
for the applier, inspector, and binlog reader.
- The user can optionally request server certificate verification through
a command line option to specify the ca cert via a file path.
- Fixes an existing bug appending the timeout option to the singleton
applier connection.
Both Percona and Maria allow MySQL to be configured to listen on an extra port when their thread pool is enable.

This is valuable because if the table has a lot of traffic (read or write load), gh-ost can end up starving the thread pool as incomming connections are immediately blocked.
By using gh-ost on the extra port, MySQL locking will still behave the same, but MySQL will keep a dedicated thread for each gh-ost connection.
When doing this, it's important to inspect the extra-max-connections variable. Both Percona and Maria default to 1, so gh-ost may easily exceed with its threads.
An example local run using this
```
$ mysql -S /tmp/mysql_sandbox20393.sock -e "select @@global.port, @@global.extra_port"
+---------------+---------------------+
| @@global.port | @@global.extra_port |
+---------------+---------------------+
| 20393 | 30393 |
+---------------+---------------------+

--execute
```
usage example:
```
gh-ost ... --force-table-names=migration_tbl
```
The force-table-names flag will receive a table name and use that name
when creating the _del, _gho, _ghc tables.
For instance for that example above, the tables would be:
_migration_tbl_del
_migration_tbl_gho
_migration_tbl_ghc
