Don't error when initializing LibGit2 with CA roots path

When e.g. SSL_CERT_FILE is set, we cannot set this location in LibGit2_jll because it isn't built with support for that. Until now we've errored out with a message telling users to set JULIA_SSL_CA_ROOTS_PATH to an empty string.

This changes the behavior to allow this expected error. Variables like SSL_CERT_FILE are for instance set by Conda, ensuring many people running into this, see e.g. https://discourse.julialang.org/search?q=JULIA_SSL_CA_ROOTS_PATH.

The other part, and some more context for this, is here: JuliaLang/NetworkOptions.jl#37 (comment)
