[pve-devel] [PATCH installer v6 23/36] auto-installer: fetch: add http post utility module

[Aaron Lauterer]

It sends a http(s) POST request with the sysinfo as payload and expects
an answer file in return.

In order to handle non FQDN URLs (e.g. IP addresses) and self signed
certificates, it can optionally take an SHA256 fingerprint of the
certificate. This can of course also be used to pin a certificate
explicitly, even if it would be in the trust chain.

A custom cert verifier for ureq / rustl was necessary to get cert
fingerprint matching to work.

If no fingerprint is proviced, we switch rustls to native-certs and
native-tls.
