Support client certificates in PEM format

[bgrainger]

In Connector/NET 8.0.16 the following feature was added:

Connector/NET applications now can use certificates in PEM format to validate SSL connections in addition to the native PFX format (see Tutorial: Configuring SSL with Connector/NET).

This introduces two new connection string options: SslCert (Ssl-Cert) and SslKey (Ssl-Key). These specify the two PEM files for the client certificate.
