Add note for non-interactive use of `s_client`

Fixes #8018

Documented the potential issue of premature connection closure in
non-interactive environments, such as cron jobs, when using `s_client`.

Added guidance on using the `-ign_eof` option and input redirection to
ensure proper handling of `stdin` and completion of TLS session data exchange.

Highlight potential issues with the `-ign_eof` flag and provide solutions for
graceful disconnection in SMTP and HTTP/1.1 scenarios to avoid indefinite hangs.
