Tweaks to BCP195 language

Issue #703 open
Joseph Heenan created an issue

The current text in FAPI2 says:

when using TLS 1.2, shall follow the recommendations for Secure Use of Transport Layer Security in [@!BCP195];

I believe we should remove the ‘when using TLS 1.2', so that it says simply:

shall follow the recommendations for Secure Use of Transport Layer Security in [@!BCP195];

The reason for this is that I think we can expect there will be an update to BCP 195 at some point in the next few years that specifies some extra requirements for TLS 1.3 (there’s already at least one TLS 1.3 related requirement, though I think that it would apply to web servers).
