[rabbitmq-discuss] Authenticate client using certificate only

I have implemented cert-based authentication for SSL connections as a  
configurable alternative to user/password authentication. If enabled,  
the client cert subject's Common Name is used as user name (no  
password is verified).

How do I turn this into a patch you could review and maybe include in  
one of the future releases?
