Ensure we always startup with a rustls CryptoProvider

The `rustls` library recently introduced this weird behavior where they
expect users to, apart from configuring the respective feature, also
explictly call `CryptoProvider::install_default`. Otherwise they'd
simply panic at runtime whenever the first network call requiring TLS
would be made. While we already made a change upstream at
`rust-electrum-client`, we also make sure here that we definitely,
always, absolutley are sure that we have a `CryptoProvider` set on
startup.
