NetworkManager doesn't ignore certificates when asked

[Thomas Wickham]

My enterprise network uses WPA2 with PEAP and a self-signed certificate.

Since 13.04, when we ask NetworkManager to accept our certificate even if self-signed and never ask again, this choice is not repercuted in the config file generated for the network, or collide with another setting (see below).

I had to modify by hand ``/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/our_wifi´´ and remove the directive `system-ca-certs=1` (or change it to 0) to make it pass the ssl-handshake.

Documentation[1] says that this setting is FALSE by default, so I suspect it's an Ubuntu behavior to opt-in it.

Issue seen with all our freshly installed 13.04 laptop with fully-supported wifi chips, all of differents brands. Not seen on Arch.

If the bug belongs to Debian BTS, or NetworkManager team, please say it, and I will report them back.
