remotes: always try to establish tls connection when tls configured

dmcgowan · dmcgowan · commit 6b591222096f · 2023-10-03T09:38:13.000-07:00
When a endpoint is configured for http and has a tls configuration, always try to the tls connection and fallback to http when the tls connections fails from receiving an http response. This fixes an issue with default localhost endpoints which get defaulted to http with insecure tls also configured but are using tls.
