MNet contains superfluous SSL cert checks

[François Marier]

MNet in Mahara has these curl options set:

  CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST = 2
  CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER = true

whereas Moodle has:

  CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST = 0
  CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER = false

Since we are already using public key crypto to authenticate and encrypt communications between sites, I think we can remove this superfluous check which incidentally prevents people from using self-signed SSL certs to protect their sites.

    MNet: Remove unnecessary SSL certificate checks (bug #888436)

    These CA checks prevent the use of self-signed certificates with
    MNet despite the fact that we wrap everything inside public key
    crypto.

    This change makes the Mahara implementation match the way that this
    is done in Moodle.
