sslutil: handle ui.insecureconnections in validator
Right now, web.cacerts=! means one of two things:
1) Use of --insecure
2) No CAs could be found and were loaded (see sslkwargs)
This isn't very obvious and makes changing behavior of these
different scenarios independent of the other impossible.
This patch changes the validator code to explicit handle the
case of --insecure being used.
As the inline comment indicates, there is room to possibly change
messaging and logic here. For now, we are backwards compatible.

Mercurial's default format for showing changes between two versions of a file is compatible with the unified format of GNU diff, which can be used by GNU patch and many other standard tools. While this standard format is often enough, it does not encode the following information: - executable status and other permission bits - copy or rename information - changes in binary files - creation or deletion of empty files Mercurial also supports the extended diff format from the git VCS which addresses these limitations. The git diff format is not produced by default because a few widespread tools still do not understand this format. This means that when generating diffs from a Mercurial repository (e.g. with :hg:`export`), you should be careful about things like file copies and renames or other things mentioned above, because when applying a standard diff to a different repository, this extra information is lost. Mercurial's internal operations (like push and pull) are not affected by this, because they use an internal binary format for communicating changes. To make Mercurial produce the git extended diff format, use the --git option available for many commands, or set 'git = True' in the [diff] section of your configuration file. You do not need to set this option when importing diffs in this format or using them in the mq extension.
