 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="34639"
 Don't set `CURLOPT_CAINFO` when `sslverify` is false when sending HTTP API
 requests through cURL. This avoids sending redundant information to cURL,
 and avoids a bug in Apple's SecureTransport library which causes a request
 to fail when a CA bundle is set but certificate verification is disabled.

 This fixes issues with local HTTPS requests (eg. WP Cron) on OS X where
 cURL is using SecureTransport instead of OpenSSL.

 Fixes #33978
