Upgrade SSL params for roundup-server Params were still using md5, a key size of 768 and allowed SSL 2 and 3. Now using sha512, key size of 2048 and TLS 1.1 or newer. This still doesn't fix the use of SSL in roundup-server. It has problems under both 2.7 and 3.x. Tickets in tracker opened for both,

+- roundup-server can act as an SSL server. Usually SSL is provided by
+  a front-end server like nginx, hiawtha, apache. The SSL parameters
+  have been upgraded to TLS 1.1. Cert is RSA 2048 bytes with SHA512
+  signature. Without these upgrades, ssl mode won't start. Note this
+  exposes other issue with roundup-server operating as an SSL
+  endpoint. See issue2551138 and issue2551137.
