That "ca-fname instead of cwd" sounds quite confusing. I'd assume
"ca-fname" is referring to the optional "CA cert" argument from the
command line, i.e., a path to a specific file. "cwd" is "current working
directory" which is not really what is being replaced here; this
replaces osu-ca.pem from the current working directory. It would also be
good to mention that this is specifically for OSEN configuration since
ctx->ca_fname is used for different purposes in various other commands
and it is not necessarily the golden CA certificates from osu-ca.pem.

os_strlcpy() is preferred instead of strncpy().

What does that "so lib curl can use it" mean here? Use for what and why?
The golden certificates from osu-ca.pem are used for authenticating the
AAA server for OSEN. What would curl do with those trust roots?

os_strlcpy() above would do that..
