Using https:// requires certificate store management and additional parameter
passing that changed across Ansible and Python versions. Using http:// allows
the same tests to be used across wider spans of Python version on the
controller, and Python verison on the targets.
Python 3.12 on a target + get_uri needs Ansible >= 8 (ansible-core >= 2.15).
Python 3.12 removed deprecated httplib.HTTPSConnection() arguments.

To do so the test suite allows a weak cryptographic alogorithm (SHA1) to be
used, principally for CentOS 6 targets. This can be removed if/when support
for older (legacy) targets is dropped.
Only the test suite enables this known weak alogorithm. Mitogen as-shipped
doesn't enable or disable algorithms.
faulthandler is a stdlib module in Python 3.3+. For a long time a PyPI package
of the same name was available for earlier Python releases. That package has
since been removed from PyPI, and the source respoitory archived. So we should
not rely on it.

Until Ansible 2.9 it looks like ansible_become_password had higher priority.
From Ansible 2.10 ansible_become_pass has higher priority [1]. Mitogen was not
respecting this.
I may need to rework this further, instatiating the become plugin may have
slowed down execution.
[1] Based on testing with
```
[ubuntus]
become-pass-pass ansible_become_pass=1234
become-pass-password ansible_become_password=1234
become-pass-both ansible_become_password=wrong ansible_become_pass=1234
[ubuntus:vars]
ansible_host=ubuntu2004.local
ansible_user=ubuntu
```
```
- hosts: ubuntus
gather_facts: false
become: true
tasks:
- ping:
```
This reapplies an earlier change, when this plugin was first introduced to
Mitogen. The plugin was updated to fix
[DEPRECATION WARNING]: The '_remote_checksum()' method is deprecated.
I've elected to short-circuit the if statemtn logic, rather than
deleting/unindenting, to make the code delta much smaller. This should make it
easier to maintain/update.
