This replaces www.microsoft.com with www.python.org as the site used for the SSl tests. It will hopefully stop the intermittent test__ssl failures during CI.

The failures were in test_SSLType_read_and_write during an attempt to read. At first I thought this might be a bug in the implementation of _ssl but it turned out that CPython exhibits the same behaviour (i.e. hangs indefinitely). My best guess now is that www.microsoft.com deploys some sophisticated anti-bot defences that hinder the automatic test. www.python.org seems to respond just fine, even during a repeated test run.

Awesome! Hopefully that resolves the SSL failures.
