http: add support for specifying an SSL cipher list
Teach git about a new option, "http.sslCipherList", which permits one to specify a list of ciphers to use when negotiating SSL connections. The setting can be overwridden by the GIT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST environment variable. Signed-off-by: Lars Kellogg-Stedman <lars@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

+http.sslCipherList::
+ A list of SSL ciphers to use when negotiating an SSL connection.
+ The available ciphers depend on whether libcurl was built against
+ NSS or OpenSSL and the particular configuration of the crypto

http.sslVerify::
Whether to verify the SSL certificate when fetching or pushing
over HTTPS. Can be overridden by the 'GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY' environment
