Bump automatic certificate update on Windows during builds (GH-143741)

Without this, OpenSSL that we use to download external dependencies might use a stale certificate store and be unable to connect to servers. We need to use a Windows-specific HTTP client that uses CryptoAPI directly to trigger certificate updates.

We only do it on failure to avoid hitting servers twice. And we only do it once per each URL.
