Download a cacert.pem for RailsInstaller

Why?

There is a long standing issue in Ruby where the net/http library by default does not check the validity of an SSL certificate during a TLS handshake. Rather than deal with the underlying problem (a missing certificate authority, a self-signed certificate, etc.) one tends to see bad hacks everywhere. This can lead to problems down the road.

From what I can see the OpenSSL library that Rails Installer delivers has no certificate authorities defined. So, let's go fetch some from the curl website. And since this is for ruby, why don't we download and install the file with a ruby script?

Installation

The Ruby Way! (Fun)

(sent to Jack in the Box contact address)
Ahoy!
My name is Jack. It's a pretty good name. I love to eat at
Jack in the Box and I'd extra-double love to wear the oversized
Jack™ head around town here in Seattle.
Could you send me a huge Jack™ head that I can wear as I go
from cafe to cafe (I work for a startup and it's all telecommuting)?
I'd be happy to abide by any rules of conduct you might have for
wearing the Jack™ head. I'd be willing to sign something to that effect.
