Just thinking out loud: It seems all this does when `userSpecifiedConstraints` 
is a `SSLAlgorithmConstraints` is force the `enableX509..` flag to `true`. So 
in addition to the obvious thing for `DEFAULT`, you could also return `DEFAULT` 
for `DEFAULT_SSL_ONLY`. Or more generally: if `userSpecifiedConstraints 
instanceof SSLAlgorithmConstraints` then you could either return 
`userSpecifiedConstraints` as-is if `enabledX509DisabledAlgConstraints` is 
`true` or else return a clone of it with `enabledX509DisabledAlgConstraints` 
set to `true`.
