Jay Satiro c4cd0e2be9 openssl: Don't ignore CA paths when using Windows CA store (redux) 
.. and remove 'experimental' designation from CURLSSLOPT_NATIVE_CA.

This commit restores the behavior of CURLSSLOPT_NATIVE_CA so that it
does not override CURLOPT_CAINFO / CURLOPT_CAPATH, or the hardcoded
default locations. Instead the native Windows CA store can be used at
the same time.

---

This behavior was originally added over two years ago in abbc5d60
(#5585) but then 83393b1a (#7892) broke it over a year ago, I assume
inadvertently.

The CURLSSLOPT_NATIVE_CA feature was marked experimental and likely
rarely used.

Experimental

Some features and functionality in curl and libcurl are considered EXPERIMENTAL.

Experimental support in curl means:

  1. Experimental features are provided to allow users to try them out and provide feedback on functionality and API etc before they ship and get "carved in stone".
  2. You must enable the feature when invoking configure as otherwise curl will not be built with the feature present.
  3. We strongly advise against using this feature in production.
  4. We reserve the right to change behavior of the feature without sticking to our API/ABI rules as we do for regular features, as long as it is marked experimental.
  5. Experimental features are clearly marked so in documentation. Beware.

Experimental features right now

  • The Hyper HTTP backend
  • HTTP/3 support and options
  • The rustls backend
  • WebSocket
