Allow self-signed certificates with property or env variable

[germanattanasio]

Hi team,

I'm currently using this library in the IBM Ruby sdk. It's working great so far so thank you. 👌

Recently, we found that we can't disable self-signed certificates. Some of our websockets connections need to be done using a wss, but the server doesn't have a valid certificate.

I looked in the README and the closed issues, and I couldn't find an issue related to this.
Is there a parameter to turn this validation off?
Would you be willing to add one?

I'm happy with writing a PR if you are ok with this.

Any update on this?
