Bug description

Running python -m aqt install-qt --outputdir ./deps/qt windows desktop 6.7.2 win64_msvc2019_64 on a machine that has a self signed root cert that routes all traffic to a proxy results in SSL error on all mirrors.

The mirrors work fine in a browser as the root cert has been trusted in Windows Certificate Manager

Expected behavior

Would be nice to be able to pass a certificate to the command, or have a flag that ignores SSL errors

aqt and python version

aqtinstall(aqt) v3.1.18 on Python 3.12.6 [CPython MSC v.1940 64 bit (AMD64)]

Operating System

Windows

@miurahr thank you for the links to Requests' documentation site, I was able to follow this section and set REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE=path/to/pem environment variable. aqt then was able to download and install normally.
