gh-159387: Fix TLS 1.0–1.2 availability detection with OpenSSL 4.0 (GH-159388)

Fix TLS 1.0–1.2 availability detection with OpenSSL 4.0

OpenSSL 4.0 removed the version-specific methods but still supports
TLS 1.0–1.2 through TLS_method(). Stop reporting these versions as
unavailable, and expose legacy PROTOCOL_TLSv1* constants only when their corresponding methods exist.
