Additional workaround for PR#2771

If OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH is set then limit the size of client
ciphersuites to this value. A value of 50 should be sufficient.

Document workarounds in CHANGES.

Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [xx XXX xxxx]
*)
*) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
record length exceeds 255 bytes.
Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [xx XXX xxxx]
1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
-DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
Most broken servers should now work.
3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
*) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
