[CMake] How to build cmake to have http support?

[Craig Scott]

I recently went through this exact same problem. In my case, when building
CMake from source, I had to enable the configure option to use the
system-provided curl instead of the one provided with CMake itself (I was
on Linux using Centos 6). With that configure option, https support worked
fine.
