Description
The named elliptic curve groups `x25519` and `x448` are now available for JSSE key agreement in TLS versions 1.0 to 1.3, with `x25519` being the most preferred of the default enabled named groups.  The default ordered list is now: 

```
    x25519, secp256r1, secp384r1, secp521r1, x448,
    sect283k1, sect283r1, sect409k1, sect409r1, sect571k1, sect571r1,
    secp256k1,
    ffdhe2048, ffdhe3072, ffdhe4096, ffdhe6144, ffdhe8192
```

The default list can be overridden using the system property *`jdk.tls.namedGroups`*.
