I'm going to be that guy and say that the doc-string of
gnutls-verify-error is so terse that it isn't useful.

"If non-nil, this should be a list of checks per hostname regex or t."

This is the whole thing. It's a defcustom, but I don't see how anyone
can set it based on that information.

What does it mean if it is nil?
What does it mean if it is t?
What format does the "list of checks per hostname" take?
