SSL_get0_verified_chain was exactly what I needed, thanks!

No, that's not necessary. After the completion of the handshake one can call
SSL_get0_verified_chain(3).
This chain is only available on full handshakes, when validation is successful
(SSL_get_verify_result(3) returns X509_V_OK). On resumption, only the leaf
certificate is available from the resumed session, via
SSL_get_peer_certificate(3).
Of course there might not be a client certificate at all.
