FEATURES: More NTLM and SSL changes, added two others, fixed typo
Added IDN and HTTP data compression as they were left out of the document until now. Added notes for qssl, schannel and Secure Transport supporting SSLv2, Secure Transport supports NTLM, and axTLS does not support SSLv3. There was also a typo; "AUTH TSL" should be "AUTH TLS".
