sslutil: improve messaging around unsupported protocols (issue5303) There are various causes for the inability to negotiate common SSL/TLS protocol between client and server. Previously, we had a single, not very actionable warning message for all of them. As people encountered TLS 1.0 servers in real life, it was quickly obvious that the existing messaging was inadequate to help users rectify the situation. This patch makes the warning messages much more verbose in hopes of making them more actionable while simultaneously encouraging users and servers to adopt better security practices. This messaging flirts with the anti-pattern of "never blame the user" by signaling out poorly-configured servers. But if we're going to disallow TLS 1.0 by default, I think we need to say *something* or people are just going to blame Mercurial for not being able to connect. The messaging tries to exonerate Mercurial from being the at fault party by pointing out the server is the entity that doesn't support proper security (when appropriate, of course).

sslutil: allow TLS 1.0 when --insecure is used --insecure is our psuedo-supported footgun for disabling connection security. The flag already disables CA verification. I think allowing the use of TLS 1.0 when specified is appropriate.

hg: copy [hostsecurity] options to remote ui instances (issue5305) TIL that ui instances for remote/peer repos don't automagically inherit config options from .hg/hgrc files. This patch makes remote ui instances inherit options from the [hostsecurity] section. We were already inheriting options from [hostfingerprints] and [auth]. So adding [hostsecurity] to the list seems appropriate.
