    Allow to disable SSL validation in gabbi tests
    
    Gabbi does not allow to pass custom path to (self-signed) SSL certs,
    so we can't really re-use the CONF.identity option (as does the AODH
    test client).
    
    This patch adds a new config option
    
      CONF.telemetry.disable_ssl_certificate_validation
    
    (False by default) that will disable SSL cert validation when running
    gabbits.
    
    For comparison, see similar patch to heat's tempest plugin
    https://review.opendev.org/#/c/703335
