Description

TLS 1.3 is almost done: ​https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tls-tls13/

Both TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 are showing their age, and users should avoid their use.

Many programs have an option to force a specific TLS version. (GnuTLS does this via gnutls_priority_init: ​https://www.gnutls.org/reference/gnutls-gnutls.html#gnutls-priority-init)

It would be awesome to have a BitlBee option to force specific TLS versions.
