Title: allow specify ssl_version fixes #296

In some cases odd ball http certificates cause various SSL exceptions even when :ssl_verify_peer is set to false. Specifying the ssl_version as 'SSLv3' seems to resolve issues associated with this behavior. This pull requests allows the setting of ssl_version but does not change the default behavior (not set).
