Remove SHOULD for elliptic curve groups in IKEv2



Elliptic curve groups have barely been tested for interoperability. 
The SHOULDs in section 8.3 and 8.4 should be reduced to MAYs. As 
wonderful as EC cryptography is supposed to be, it is overkill to 
make it a near-requirement when probably fewer than 10% of 
implementations today use it.
