This is a variation on #626
It switches the retry from to only be in the case of inadequate security.

Made cipher restrictions TLS1.2 specific.

Removed all "such as" examples and replaced with references to RFC

Made DHE or ECDHE the only acceptable key exchanges as I could not find
precise definition of an ephemeral key exchange. None DHE or ECDHE ciphers
will have to be TLS 1.3 or rely on 9.2.3

Moved h1 backwards compatibility to 9.2.3 section.  Weak ciphers can
only be offered in a retry without h2.  If a client advertises a cipher
with h2, it must not subsequently reject it.

Hey Greg - just a side note; please try to keep diffs on proposals for design issues as minimal as possible, so people can more easily evaluate what you're proposing. If you have editorial suggestions / cleanup that you'd like to do, that can go in a separate (editorial) pull.

Thanks,

Mark,

noted. I tossed this one up a bit as I think the stricter/simpler write
up of 9.2.2 is closely related to having a robust handshake.... but I guess
it could also have been separate and probably should have been.

Anyway, sounds like I may have finally communicated my actual concerns and
I'm interested to see what Martin comes up with in his updated PR.

cheers
