correct smtp-ssl-cert-path description

Browse Source 
The git-send-email documentation was never updated to reflect
the change made in 01645b74 to use the SSL library's default
CA trust store rather than /etc/ssl/certs as a hardcoded
default CApath. This corrects that, and also tweaks the rest
of the text a bit to explain more accurately what is required
for a valid CApath / CAfile.

Legacy alias for '--smtp-encryption ssl'.
--smtp-ssl-cert-path::
Path to ca-certificates (either a directory or a single file).
Set it to an empty string to disable certificate verification.
Defaults to the value set to the 'sendemail.smtpsslcertpath'
configuration variable, if set, or `/etc/ssl/certs` otherwise.
Path to a store of trusted CA certificates for SMTP SSL/TLS
certificate validation (either a directory that has been processed
by 'c_rehash', or a single file containing one or more PEM format
certificates concatenated together: see verify(1) -CAfile and
-CApath for more information on these). Set it to an empty string
to disable certificate verification. Defaults to the value of the
'sendemail.smtpsslcertpath' configuration variable, if set, or the
backing SSL library's compiled-in default otherwise (which should
be the best choice on most platforms).
--smtp-user=<user>::
Username for SMTP-AUTH. Default is the value of 'sendemail.smtpuser';
