security/py-truststore: Add py-truststore 0.7.0
Truststore is a library which exposes native system certificate stores (ie "trust stores") through an ssl.SSLContext-like API. This means that Python applications no longer need to rely on certifi as a root certificate store. Native system certificate stores have many helpful features compared to a static certificate bundle like certifi: - Automatically update certificates as new CAs are created and removed - Fetch missing intermediate certificates - Check certificates against certificate revocation lists (CRLs) to avoid monster-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks - Managed per-system rather than per-application by a operations/IT team - PyPI is no longer a CA distribution channel Right now truststore is a stand-alone library that can be installed globally in your application to immediately take advantage of the benefits in Python 3.10+. Truststore has also been integrated into pip as an opt-in method for verifying HTTPS certificates with truststore instead of certifi. Long-term the hope is to make truststore the default way to verify HTTPS certificates in pip and to add this functionality into Python itself. Wish us luck!
