Expose set_groups functions

This allows pyOpenSSL to restrict the groups allowed to be used. E.g.
for restricting the groups to post-quantum hybrid groups
(e.g. X25519MLKEM768) to always ensure that post-quantum cryptography is
used.

This commit uses the set_groups as public API since that is the
preferred naming. Internally for the API we use the set_curves API
since this name is available on all OpenSSL implementations and
OpenSSL forks.

+- Added ``OpenSSL.SSL.Context.set_groups`` and ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.set_groups`` to set allowed groups/curves.
 
 - Added ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.get_group_name`` to determine which group name was negotiated.
