Description:
------------
Using PHP 7.2.11 with OpenSSL 1.1.1, the IMAP extension fails to connect to Gmail.

Quoting from the bug tracker of Python's imaplib2, which was affected by the same issue:

> This is because [IMAP extension] does not support SNI, and Google returns an invalid certificate in that case. 
>
> Some sites want to encourage the use of SNI and configure a default certificate that fails WebPKI authentication when the client supports TLS 1.3.

The IMAP extension should use SNI if TLS version is 1.3.


Actual result:
--------------
Error message when connecting to Gmail:

> RuntimeException: Certificate failure for imap.gmail.com: self signed certificate: /OU=No SNI provided; please fix your client./CN=invalid2.invalid

This is a problem in the underlying UW IMAP client library (which is basically abandoned). There is nothing that can be done on the PHP extension level.

This issue can be closed as "invalid", since it's not a bug in PHP.

FYI, Ubuntu's bionic-updates (and newer) now has a fixed libc-client2007e package.
