64523709bf Add: use https:// for content-service connections (#10448)
This requires the use of WinHTTP (for Windows) or libcurl (for all
others except Emscripten). Emscripten does not support http(s)
calls currently.

On Linux it requires ca-certificates to be installed, so the HTTPS
certificate can be validated. It is really likely this is installed
on any modern machine, as most connections these days are HTTPS.

(On MacOS and Windows the certificate store is filled by default)

Reminder: in case the http(s):// connection cannot be established,
OpenTTD falls back to a custom TCP-based connection to fetch the
content from the content-service. Emscripten will always do this.

8adade26ed Feature: allow the use of STUN to connect client and server together
This method doesn't require port-forwarding to be used, and works for
most common NAT routers in home setups. But, for sure it doesn't work
for all setups, and not everyone will be able to use this.
