[Development of GNU's TLS library]

Hi, yes this option in gnutls is absolutely clear and works perfect. But @lumag merged part of russian national cipher into **nettle** library which **has no such option**. Please see the following commits:

Today **bind9** for example completely removed all gost functionality and it can come from openssl only. So bind9 removed old option `--with-gost=no` from its code.

What plan do gnutls have about gost? Will gost be completely moved into nettle? Should nettle has the same option `--disable-gost` as gnutls?
