Because I wanted the 'extra' text (ssl_info) printed on same line as
CURLINFO_DATA_x would do:
=> Send data SSLv2, Client hello (1), 130 bytes (0x82)
0000: 01 03 01 00 69 00 00 00 10 00 00 39 00 00 38 00 ....i......9..8.

ssl_buf is the raw data and ssl_info is the prefix text. I could put both in a
new buffer (which my_trace would need to break apart again), but I just
saved a memcpy().

Yes, but that mean another CURLOPT_DEBUFx? Or modify the existing?
