[SPWebApplication] Calls Set-SPWebApplication with non existing Parameter SecureSocketsLayer

Problem description

The Set Function for SPWebApplication adds the SecureSocketsLayer Parameter to the Set-SPWebApplication function, if the WebApplication URL has an https scheme.

In SharePoint Server 2019 the Set-SPWebApplication Function does not have a parameter SecureSocketsLayer
