The existing GNUTLS_NO_TICKETS flag affects all versions of TLS, where PFS is assured in TLS 1.3, while it is not in TLS 1.2. This adds a new flag GNUTLS_NO_TICKETS_TLS12 to allow applications to disable session tickets only in TLS 1.2.
As the only means of resumption in TLS 1.3 is using session tickets, we could repurpose the GNUTLS_NO_TICKETS flag make it no-op in TLS 1.3. However it would break backward compatibility, so we defer it to the next major release.
