Just an update on the Open vSwitch part of this bug.  While the above is
true, and there is an outstanding issue of updating the Open vSwitch
defaults and documentation, due to how the defaults are set up for the
OpenSSL library in Ubuntu, Open vSwitch and OVN is in effect not
affected by this.

The Ubuntu OpenSSL library configuration will make Open vSwitch and OVN
only enable TLSv1.2 and TLSv1.3 as long as no configuration is provided
for the SSL_Protocols and SSL_Ciphers options.
