This has been merged.  I wrote the feature, Jeremy wrote the tests, the
buildfarm was happy, I've merged it to master.

This should be part of the imminent feature-freeze RC and thus part of
Exim 4.91 -- probably the last thing to squeak in, but it fits as part
of Jeremy's work maturing DANE: 4.91 will be the first release where
DANE is "normal" not "experimental", with support both via OpenSSL and
GnuTLS.

SMTP Transport option dane_require_tls_ciphers -- exactly the same as
tls_require_ciphers and falls back to tls_require_ciphers appropriately.
Use it to specify a different cipher list for when DANE is in play.

This makes it easier to be much stricter for hosts which appear to be
doing security right, and where there is no plaintext fallback.

With GnuTLS, where the string is interpreted as a "priority string", you
can also turn on and off TLS/SSL protocol versions as part of the
option.  With OpenSSL, it's just ciphersuites.

Have fun!
