Only the TLS 1.2 protocol is supported

[variableresistor]

Feature Idea Summary

PowerShell Core supports the faster TLS 1.3 protocol, but the module forces it to use 1.2.

Feature Idea Additional Details

In the GitHubCore.ps1 file:

[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol=[Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12

Requested Assignment

Don't care. I can do it if the PR doesn't take too long. Just change the above code to:

if ($PSVersionTable.PSVersion -lt 7.0.0)
{
    [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol=[Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12
}

and in the finally block:

if ($PSVersionTable.PSVersion -lt 7.0.0)
{
    [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = $originalSecurityProtocol
}

PowerShell 6 isn't supported anymore, so anything less than 7 should use TLS 1.2.
