Starting with the very first commit, the update was always done with
two api calls: one for DELETE and one for REPLACE. It is however
perfectly valid and save to do both at once, which makes it atomic, so
no need for the rollback. Plus it only updates the serial once.
There is no point in sending the full RRset data when deleting it, the
key attributes to identify it are enough. This also make the behaviour
consistent with the api docs [0] where it says "MUST NOT be included
when changetype is set to DELETE."

verify secured outgoing HTTP connections.
Usually verifying is desired and helps to reveal configuration
problems. It also disables an ugly warning when HTTPS connections
are made without verification.
