Description

The default sslmode is 'prefer' which allows SSL connection to DB server, but CA of the DB server is not verified.

When using --foreman-db-sslmode 'verify-full' to enforce the CA cert verification there is no way to configure the root cert for the connection.
System CA trust is not supported by libpg and the cert is expected at '/usr/share/foreman/.postgresql/root.crt'.

Add an installer option to setup the root cert and consider if 'prefer' is the right and secure default option.
