The Pure Storage Flash Array special agent now properly implements Server Name Indication (SNI) during TLS handshakes when using the --cert-server-name option.

When connecting to Pure Storage devices by IP address while specifying a hostname via --cert-server-name, the agent failed to properly communicate the expected hostname during the SNI portion of the TLS handshake.

The agent now properly implements SNI by setting both the hostname validation and the server hostname for SNI negotiation, following urllib3 best practices. This ensures the correct certificate is requested and validated during connection establishment.
