Cherry-pick of PR #8772 to 6.x branch. Original message:

This adds support for the new TLS version negotiation mechanism
introduced in TLS 1.3.

It relies on a new extension: supported_versions. When this
extension is used in the CLIENT_HELLO message, it features
a list of versions the client is willing to use:

"supported_versions": [
  "TLS 1.3",
  "TLS 1.2",
  "TLS 1.1",
  "TLS 1.0"
],

If the server supports the extension, it will pick one of the
offered versions and include it in the SERVER_HELLO message:

"supported_versions": "TLS 1.3",

The TLS parser will report a new field, tls.version, that is the
TLS version that has been selected after negotiation, either using
the new negotiation introduced in TLS 1.3 or the legacy negotiation
mechanism that used the version field in HELLO messages.

Update TLS dashboard to use new version field …

  • Server version visualisation changed to TLS Version
  • Client version is not useful anymore, replaced by
    tls.server_certificate.public_key_size

Fixes #8647

This adds support for the new TLS version negotiation mechanism
introduced in TLS 1.3.

It relies on a new extension: `supported_versions`. When this
extension is used in the CLIENT_HELLO message, it features
a list of versions the client is willing to use:

```
"supported_versions": [
  "TLS 1.3",
  "TLS 1.2",
  "TLS 1.1",
  "TLS 1.0"
],
```

If the server supports the extension, it will pick one of the
offered versions and include it in the SERVER_HELLO message:

```
"supported_versions": "TLS 1.3",
```

The TLS parser will report a new field, `tls.version`, that is the
TLS version that has been selected after negotiation, either using
the new negotiation introduced in TLS 1.3 or the legacy negotiation
mechanism that used the version field in HELLO messages.

Updated the TLS dashboard to use the new version field:

- Server version visualization changed to TLS Version
- Client version is not useful anymore, replaced by
  tls.server_certificate.public_key_size

Fixes elastic#8647
