DH parameters update, new values & defaultexim-4_88_RC2
* Add three new Exim-specific DH parameter constants; state provenance, but no way for others to verify; this is a signed commit, which is about as much as we can do for the truly paranoid: provide an audit trail. * Add the RFC 7919 DH primes + No TLS feature negotiation, per 7919, but the DH primes can be used if folks so choose * Fixed broken format string in util/gen_pkcs3.c * Tried to make gen_pkcs3.c support q values. + Turns out, q doesn't affect the PEM and that's not a mistake in my initialisation; I've checked with a cryptographer, we're losing some server-side optimizations but not any security properties for our scenario. Fixes: 1895
