Looking at the docs, SSL_state_string_long() is better than just
SSL_state_string(), so that sounds right:
https://www.openssl.org/docs/manmaster/man3/SSL_CTX_set_info_callback.html
https://www.openssl.org/docs/manmaster/man3/SSL_state_string.html
https://www.openssl.org/docs/manmaster/man3/SSL_state_string_long.html

This is interesting for debugging, +1 for applying what you have
here, and this works for 1.0.1~3.0.0. Worth noting that this returns
a static string, as per ssl_stat.c.
