doc: fix createDiffieHellman generator type
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.)
