Description

Adds stronger HTTPS support to older Python HTTP stacks through PyOpenSSL. It helps legacy code validate TLS connections and certificates more reliably than the basic clients it extends.

This is compatibility security infrastructure. Developers should still prefer modern HTTP libraries for new code and verify certificate settings instead of disabling checks.
