Elevate server TLS cipher preferences over client
The server cipher list is (thanks to #11513) chosen systematically to put the best choices for Tor first. The client cipher list is chosen to resemble a browser. So let's set SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE to have the servers pick according to their own preference order.

+ o Minor features:
+ - Servers now trust themselves to have a better view than clients of
+ which TLS ciphersuites to choose. (Thanks to #11513, the server
+ list is now well-considered, whereas the client list has been
+ chosen mainly for anti-fingerprinting purposes.) Resolves ticket
