Now that synapse requires real certs, we should present real certs.
We could just turn off the cert validation in synapse, but it seems nicer to
use a fake CA.
The CA key/cert were generated with:
openssl genrsa -out ca.key 2048
openssl req -new -x509 -key ca.key -days 3650 -out ca.crt
We could generate them dynamically, but it's easier to store them.

Can we not turn this off then? Or what? I'm a bit confused about what has real certs and what doesn't.

this setting controls synapse's 'simple http client', which is used for non-federation requests, including (it turns out) some to IS servers. There's no way to set a custom CA for that, hence the setting.
This should probably be in a comment in the sytest code...
