Outdated ssl documentation wrt changes in OpenSSL 4 #152709

Description

Documentation

Hey. It was reported to us in Fedora that ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_2 no longer available in Python. We figured out that this is related to changes in OpenSSL 4 -- 3364e7e

@vstinner said:

there are still references to ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_2 and other removed protocols in Lib/ssl.py. Well, don't trust the documentation on this point, the doc is outdated :-)

This is also true for pydoc.

I am redirecting this here for tracking purposes to update the ssl documentation wrt changes in OpenSSL 4.
