Reduce memory allocation when writing to SSLSocket

[ This is a backport to the 2.1 branch. ]

At the moment OpenSSL::Buffering#do_write allocates some additional
strings, and in my profiling writing 5MB of data allocates additional
7.7MB of strings.

This patch greatly reduces memory allocations, and now writing 5MB of
data allocates only additional 0.2MB of strings. This means that large
file uploads would effectively not allocate additional memory anymore.
