That works, although it does assume that TLS version strings won't do
anything silly in the future like change prefix (they have done in the
past from SSL -> TLS, but S<T so thatʼs OK).

One nit is this:

(string-version-lessp "TLS1.3" nil) => t

which is somewhat surprising, but doesnʼt matter for my use case.
