Make the TLSv1.3 downgrade mechanism a configurable option
Make it disabled by default. When TLSv1.3 is out of draft we can remove this option and have it enabled all the time. Reviewed-by: Rich Salz <rsalz@openssl.org> (Merged from https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/3022)

+ TODO(TLS1.3): Make this enabled by default and remove the
+ option when TLSv1.3 is out of draft
+ TLSv1.3 offers a downgrade protection mechanism. This is
+ implemented but disabled by default. It should not typically
+ be enabled except for testing purposes. Otherwise this could
+ cause problems if a pre-RFC version of OpenSSL talks to an
+ RFC implementation (it will erroneously be detected as a
+ downgrade).
