    Only allow ephemeral RSA keys in export ciphersuites.
    
    OpenSSL clients would tolerate temporary RSA keys in non-export
    ciphersuites. It also had an option SSL_OP_EPHEMERAL_RSA which
    enabled this server side. Remove both options as they are a
    protocol violation.
    
    Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan for reporting this issue.

-Always use ephemeral (temporary) RSA key when doing RSA operations
-(see L<SSL_CTX_set_tmp_rsa_callback(3)|SSL_CTX_set_tmp_rsa_callback(3)>).
-According to the specifications this is only done, when a RSA key
-can only be used for signature operations (namely under export ciphers
-with restricted RSA keylength). By setting this option, ephemeral
-RSA keys are always used. This option breaks compatibility with the
-SSL/TLS specifications and may lead to interoperability problems with
-clients and should therefore never be used. Ciphers with DHE (ephemeral
-Diffie-Hellman) key exchange should be used instead.
+This option is no longer implemented and is treated as no op.
