The commit in this PR fixes that issue and it now matches the API specification as well as what is done in `javax.net.ssl.SSLParameters` class.

This change fixes the implementation of the `HttpsParameters` methods to match its API specification. At the same time, it's still a change in behaviour of these methods. Should we file a CSR for this change?
