Research direction

Start by running the reported LibGit2Sharp.Tests reproduction on Windows 10 with TLS 1.3 enabled, then trace the HTTPS fetch path that produces the “could not decrypt tls message” error. Done means the fetch completes without that error and the regression is covered by the existing test suite.
