Description
Per the suggestion in https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/34883#comment:3, I'm opening this issue so that WP's wp_remote_request(), etc can more easily use client certs.
And while not mentioned in the Trac ticket, there is also need to set CURLOPT_SSLKEY.

Research direction
Start by tracing the wp_remote_request() entry point and how this library exposes cURL options. No file or test is named; completion should let callers use TLS client certificates and set CURLOPT_SSLKEY, with coverage for those options.
