[arm-allstar] Let's Encrypt related certificate errors

Hi Everyone,

I've released an update to resolve the certificate expiration errors found
when accessing TLS secured websites, etc., using Let's Encrypt
certificates.  Please update using admin menu option #1 to download this
update.

You can test for this problem, like this:

[root at RPi4B-dev ~]# curl -sSo /dev/null  https://letsencrypt.org
curl: (60) SSL certificate problem: certificate has expired
More details here: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html

curl performs SSL certificate verification by default, using a "bundle"
 of Certificate Authority (CA) public keys (CA certs). If the default
 bundle file isn't adequate, you can specify an alternate file
 using the --cacert option.
If this HTTPS server uses a certificate signed by a CA represented in
 the bundle, the certificate verification probably failed due to a
 problem with the certificate (it might be expired, or the name might
 not match the domain name in the URL).
If you'd like to turn off curl's verification of the certificate, use
 the -k (or --insecure) option.



......Once the update is installed, the curl output should be "blank":


[root at RPi4B-dev ~]# curl -sSo /dev/null  https://letsencrypt.org
[root at RPi4B-dev ~]#
