Jay Satiro 172b2beba6 SSL: Add an option to disable certificate revocation checks
New tool option --ssl-no-revoke.
New value CURLSSLOPT_NO_REVOKE for CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS.

Currently this option applies only to WinSSL where we have automatic
certificate revocation checking by default. According to the
ssl-compared chart there are other backends that have automatic checking
(NSS, wolfSSL and DarwinSSL) so we could possibly accommodate them at
some later point.

.TH CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS 3 "19 Jun 2014" "libcurl 7.37.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
.SH NAME
CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS \- set SSL behavior options
.SH SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS, long bitmask);
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a long with a bitmask to tell libcurl about specific SSL behaviors.
\fICURLSSLOPT_ALLOW_BEAST\fP tells libcurl to not attempt to use any
workarounds for a security flaw in the SSL3 and TLS1.0 protocols. If this
option isn't used or this bit is set to 0, the SSL layer libcurl uses may use a
work-around for this flaw although it might cause interoperability problems
with some (older) SSL implementations. WARNING: avoiding this work-around
lessens the security, and by setting this option to 1 you ask for exactly that.
This option is only supported for DarwinSSL, NSS and OpenSSL.
Added in 7.44.0:
\fICURLSSLOPT_NO_REVOKE\fP tells libcurl to disable certificate revocation
checks for those SSL backends where such behavior is present. \fBCurrently this
option is only supported for WinSSL (the native Windows SSL library), with an
exception in the case of Windows' Untrusted Publishers blacklist which it seems
can't be bypassed.\fP This option may have broader support to accommodate other
SSL backends in the future.
