Review comment:
> WEAK_ALGORITHMS can occur only in specific parts of a cipher suite
@artem-smotrakov This is precisely what bothers me. The weak algorithms can
occur at specific parts but the propose change-set simply tests for occurrence
of those expressions at any arbitrary position in the cipher name. This looks
sloppy.
