bpo-35925: Skip SSL tests that fail due to weak external certs. (GH-13124)
Modern Linux distros such as Debian Buster have default OpenSSL system configurations that reject connections to servers with weak certificates by default. This causes our test suite run with external networking resources enabled to skip these tests when they encounter such a failure. Fixing the network servers is a separate issue.

+Skip httplib and nntplib networking tests when they would otherwise fail due to a modern OS or distro with a default OpenSSL policy of rejecting connections to servers with weak certificates.
