doc: fix createDiffieHellman generator type

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/tniessen/doc-fix-creatediffiehellman into master

OpenSSL does not provide a straight-forward way to implement a non-integer generator, so createDiffieHellman never supported anything other than a number as the generator. (This only applies to the signature where the first argument is the size of the prime, and therefore a number.)
