…pythonGH-13124)

configurations that reject connections to servers with weak certificates
by default.  This causes our test suite run with external networking
resources enabled to skip these tests when they encounter such a failure.

Fixing the network servers is a separate issue..

self-signed.pythontest.net was updated so the test_httplib change is
no longer necessary.
