The PySSLContext struct mentions that "OpenSSL has no API to get hostflags from X509_VERIFY_PARAM* struct. We have to maintain our own copy". Since OpenSSL 1.1.0i added the function X509_VERIFY_PARAM_get_hostflags, this statement is no longer true. Because Python 3.10 requires OpenSSL 1.1.1 (PEP 644), we no longer have to maintain a copy of the host flags. The related PR removes the hostflags member from the PySSLContext struct.
