I left the initial `_CA_CERTS = None` as a sort of initial declaration
of the variable, since I don't really know python that well and I didn't
think it was correct to declare it inside the try…except.

I added the line at the top of core.py saying it was Guix specific and I
also adjusted the commit message for python mentioning the
$SSL_CERT_FILE in the natives-search-paths.

Then I went to build my home-config and I realized what I'd done with
the native-search-paths in python-3.10 and I moved it to the replacement
python so it wouldn't cause a world rebuild.

Patches pushed!
