Addon core
Description SSL/TLS is not actually all that complicated to implement in a mailer, given PHP does most of the work in it's streams library.
The START-TLS protocol is also relatively simple.
The only issue is if it is compiled into PHP, which nowadays it should be - but we can check for that and inform the user appropriately.

So I think we could implement this and dump the bettermail addon (swiftmailer), given swiftmailer is reaching EOL anyway.
