OpenSSL: drop support for SSLv2 and SSLv3
As per RFC 6176 (2011) and RFC 7568 (2015). Code-wise, we're left with the decision of what to do with a few enumerators in QSsl::Protocol; I've made TlsV1SslV3 act as TlsV1, and adjusted the description of AnyProtocol. A new test was introduced - deprecatedProtocol() - to test that we, indeed, do not allow use of SSL v2 and v3. protocol() and protocolServerSide() were reduced to exclude the (now) no-op and meaningless tests - neither client nor server side can start a handshake now, since we bail out early in initSslContext(). [ChangeLog][QtNetwork][SSL] Support for SSLv2 and SSLv3 sockets has been dropped, as per RFC 6176 (2011) and RFC 7568 (2015).
