TLS session resumption by net/http Transport was broken by 3cf15b5

Example program: http://play.golang.org/p/yNVJaXwaxM

go version go1.4.2 linux/amd64:

<no output>

go version devel +3cfc34a Tue Aug 4 21:10:58 2015 +0000 linux/amd64

Died on iteration 2: Get https://www.google.com/: tls: handshake did not verify certificate chain
exit status 1

Sent https://go-review.googlesource.com/13145, but I'm still working on a reasonable test.

Strengthening VerifyHostname exposed the fact that for resumed
connections, ConnectionState().VerifiedChains was not being saved
and restored during the ClientSessionCache operations.
Do that.

This change just saves the verified chains in the client's session
cache. It does not re-verify the certificates when resuming a
connection.

There are arguments both ways about this: we want fast, light-weight
resumption connections (thus suggesting that we shouldn't verify) but
it could also be a little surprising that, if the verification config
is changed, that would be ignored if the same session cache is used.

On the server side we do re-verify client-auth certificates, but the
situation is a little different there. The client session cache is an
object in memory that's reset each time the process restarts. But the
server's session cache is a conceptual object, held by the clients, so
can persist across server restarts. Thus the chance of a change in
verification config being surprisingly ignored is much higher in the
server case.

Fixes golang#12024.
