New Merge Request !1006

There is a mismatch in the lower limit of record sizes in RFC 8449 (64) and our default (512).  If the server advertises a smaller limit than our default, the client has no way to keep communicating with the server.
    
This patch adds a new priority string option %ALLOW_SMALL_RECORDS to set the limit to 64.
