We previously left this in, since it's generally better to follow TLS
rules, but there's one case where it matters: when a client sends a
request without using SNI, and so the proxy may not show the right
certificate. We want to allow that, and to do so we need to ensure that
hostname checks are skipped (but only for our CA - not for any others,
which must still follow normal TLS rules).
This avoids the potential for bugs (calling the method directly does
dynamic lookup based on argument types, which may not match the called
method in ambiguous cases, e.g. int vs double are indistinguishable in
JS) and improves performance (skipping any dynamic method lookup).
