Log:
Fix up some SSL configuration, per issue #49484. IE6 had a hotfix released
for this problem quite a while back (see kb 921090), so restrict the
modified behavior to the old/unsupported browsers.

* docs/conf/extra/http-ssl.conf.in:
   (): tighten up the regex to only select old MSIE browsers for the
     downgrade in http behavior. this allows IE6 to run much faster.

There was a discussion[1,2] at some ApacheCon about improving defaults for this BrowserMatch (and for SSLCipherSuite). The discussion ended with the suggestion:

BrowserMatch "MSIE" ssl-unclean-shutdown
BrowserMatch "MSIE [2-5]" nokeepalive downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0

So should we keep "ssl-unclean-shutdown" for all MSIE versions?
