tls: use default OpenSSL built-in DH parameters

Type: improvement

Motivation for this addition is to add support for cipher suites
that use Diffie-Hellman Ephemeral (DHE) for key exchange.

Using ephemeral DH key exchange yields forward secrecy as the
connection can only be decrypted when the DH key is known.
Configure OpenSSL to use the default built-in DH parameters for the
SSL_CTX object.
