Description
Issue: redis-py doesn't enforce hostname validation (Common Name nor Subject Alternative Name) by default when accepting a cert from a remote SSL terminator. This default behavior isn't compatible to accepted PEPs/RFCs and provides a dangerous sense of false security.
Task: Correct redis-py to validate certificates by default. IMHO this shouldn't be considered a breaking change as it simply reenforces the expected results when initiating a SSL connection.
