http: add support for disabling SSL revocation checks in cURL

This adds support for a new http.schannelCheckRevoke config value.

This config value is only used if http.sslBackend is set to "schannel",
which forces cURL to use the Windows Certificate Store when validating
server certificates associated with a remote server.

This config value should only be set to "false" if you are in an
environment where revocation checks are blocked by the network, with
no alternative options.

This is only supported in cURL 7.44 or later.

Note: an earlier iteration tried to use the config setting
http.schannel.checkRevoke, but the http.* config settings can be limited
to specific URLs via http.<url>.* (which would mistake `schannel` for a
URL).
