[PATCH] nss: enable new AES TLS ciphersuites

Hello,

there are new AES TLS ciphersuites supported by NSS 3.4+, but they are not
enabled by default to ensure that older programs do not use these new cipher
suites inadvertently:

There is no reason to not use them in nss-enabled libcurl as these ciphers are
commonly used when OpenSSL support is compiled in. The attached patch enables
these ciphers explicitly.
