Nick Mathewson 72c1e5acfe Switch ECDHE group default logic for bridge/relay TLS
According to the manpage, bridges use P256 for conformity and relays
use P224 for speed. But skruffy points out that we've gotten it
backwards in the code.

In this patch, we make the default P256 for everybody.

Fixes bug 9780; bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha.

o Minor bugfixes (performance, fingerprinting):
- Our default TLS ecdhe groups were backwards: we meant to be using
P224 for relays (for performance win) and P256 for bridges (since
it is more common in the wild). Instead we had it backwards. After
reconsideration, we decided that the default should be P256 on all
hosts, since its security is probably better, and since P224 is
reportedly used quite little in the wild. Found by "skruffy" on
IRC. Fix for bug 9780; bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha.
