Oh right, thanks for reminding me about this.
This means that this build supports *both* LibreSSL and SecureTransport, but
that it uses LibreSSL by default.
The one(s) not selected by default are listed within parentheses. You can make
curl use the other TLS backend by specifying it with the CURL_SSL_BACKEND
environment variable or for libcurl use, the curl_global_sslset() function.
