There is no "standard" location for the certificate bundle, so many
programs/libraries have various hard-coded default locations that
don't exist on NixOS. To make these more likely to work, provide
some symlinks.
It's more standard than $OPENSSL_X509_CERT_FILE (which I guess was a
totally unnecessary patch to OpenSSL). Since curl respects
$SSL_CERT_FILE, it's no longer needed to set $CURL_CA_BUNDLE. Git
unfortunately doesn't.
Using pkgs.lib on the spine of module evaluation is problematic
because the pkgs argument depends on the result of module
evaluation. To prevent an infinite recursion, pkgs and some of the
modules are evaluated twice, which is inefficient. Using ‘with lib’
prevents this problem.
