This is because CONNECT is not using forward.c when setting up the
connection, and FwdState is internal to forward.c.

ssl.c needs to be convinced to try the list of peers returned by
peerSelect(), and not only the first one..

a) A new timeout handler needs to be written that knows how to try the
next peer on connect timeout (today the client connection is simply
closed it seems).

b) sslConnectDone needs to do the same if it finds that the connect
attempt failed (today sends an error).

See the connect_timeout directive.
