Search Result Export with SSL off doesn't work

Describe the bug
When the [sslConfig] enableSplunkdSSL is set to false in server.conf, then export of search results fails, giving the following on-screen error:

Service Unavailable

This was working in the 9.* version, but has been broken in the 10.* version.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to 'server.conf' and set the [sslConfig] enableSplunkdSSL flag to false. Restart splunk server.
2. Perform a search in the web search.
3. Attempt to export the results using the down arrow.
4. See error

Expected behavior
Results are exported

Additional context
I think the problem is in Splunk\Python-3.13\Lib\site-packages\splunk\rest\__init__.py, when it goes to create the "conn" object for the connection, it has an if-else statement. In the "if" part of the statement, it has the "if isssl else httplib.HTTPConnection(host, port, timeout=timeout)" code which will create an HTTPConnection if ssl is not enabled. BUT in the "else" part of the if-else statement, it doesn't have that, so will always attempt to create an HTTPSConnection even if ssl is not enabled.

Start in Splunk\Python-3.13\Lib\site-packages\splunk\rest_init_.py, around streamingRequest and the conn creation logic, then reproduce the export request with enableSplunkdSSL=false. Verify the connection uses the configured protocol and that search-result export succeeds without the WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER error.
