Clarify logic of selection of SSL client's certificate for client authentication

XMLWordPrintable

      It's not clear how a SSL client's certificate which is sent to server for a
      client authentication is selected on the client if multiple certificates for
      a same signer exit in the client's keystore file. Then, an expired client
      certificate can be selected wrongly for the client authentication against a
      programmer's intention if a valid certificate and an expired certificate for
      the same signer exist in the keystore file. And, the
      javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException would be thrown in both sides, client and
      server, as a handshake error.
