doc: clarify tls.tlsSocket.getCipher().version

The getCipher() returns a tuple that includes protocol version string.
This string refers to the minimum protocol version string, as per
documentation. What is missing is a reference to the documentation
where to get the negotiated cipher for the socket connection and
a clearer example.
