Don’t validate SSL certificates when fetching data #264

Closed andylolz closed 3 years ago

The crawler currently validates SSL certificates when fetching IATI data from publishers. That’s certainly good practice… But when the certificates don’t validate for whatever reason (as was the case recently for all AidStream data), datastore users lose out.

NB the registry archiver also works this way: https://github.com/ViderumGlobal/ckanext-iati/blob/f6539246/ckanext/iati/archiver.py#L378-L379
