 In [changeset:"60027" 60027]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="60027"
 Security: Update bundled Root Certificates.

 The Root Certificate bundle maintained by Mozilla ships in WordPress to
 allow SSL certificates to be verified on hosts with incomplete, outdated,
 or invalid local SSL configurations.

 This updates the `ca-bundle.crt` file to the latest version, which applies
 upstream changes from the bundle maintained by Mozilla and keeps all
 unexpired legacy 1024bit certificates which are kept for backward
 compatibility purposes (see [35919]).

 Partially merges [34283], [35919], [36570], [37431], [46094], [58707],
 [59740] and [59969] to the 4.3 branch.
