[Pkg-nginx-maintainers] Bug#915499: nginx: ship a snippet for strong SSL options

I should point out that "strong" options are typically only for the most
modern grades of interactivity of SSL compatibility.  Therefore
Cipherli.st's recommendations are not altogether the most same approach to
this even if it's a non-default config snippet.

Permit me to ask this, but what basis is being used by you to determine
"strong" options here?  Purely cipherli.st or other sources of research as
well to support the "strong" definition in this case?
