docs: document version of crustls dependency
This also pins a specific release in the Travis test so future
API-breaking changins in crustls won't break curl builds.
Add RUSTLS documentation to release tarball.
Enable running tests for rustls, minus FTP tests (require
connect_blocking, which rustls doesn't implement) and 313 (requires CRL
handling).
Closes #6763
