Set NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED to 0 conditionally behind a settings flag

[bernardop]

After the 3.2.6 update I haven't been able to use this extension. Whenever I try to update/upload I get an error (Sync: Internet not connected or unable to connect to GitHub. Exception logged in Console). When I look at the console there's a couple of "unable to verify the first certificate" errors. I have tried setting my http.proxyStrictSSL to false and launching vs code with the --ignore-certificate-errors flag without any luck.

What do you think of having a setting that would set NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED to 0 right before a network request and set it back to 1 right after?
