Each curl-handle keeps its own cache. You can pass the handle between threads,
but only one thread may use the handle at any one time.

The SSL session ID cache should be shareable using the share interface (as
that would allow multiple threads to share the same SSL id cache), but
currently it is not. Patches are welcome.
