Add docs on how to turn off SSL verification on GH oauth

In https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests/323/ we added support
to disable SSL verification because attempting to import projects from a
self-signed GH Enterprise instance will fail with an SSL error.

On the sign in page there should now be a GitHub icon below the regular sign in form.
Click the icon to begin the authentication process. GitHub will ask the user to sign in and authorize the GitLab application.
If everything goes well the user will be returned to GitLab and will be signed in.

### GitHub Enterprise with Self-Signed Certificate
If you are attempting to import projects from GitHub Enterprise with a self-signed
certificate and the imports are failing, you will need to disable SSL verification.
It should be disabled by adding `verify_ssl` to `false` to the provider configuration.
For omnibus package:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['omniauth_providers'] = [
{
"name" => "github",
"app_id" => "YOUR_APP_ID",
"app_secret" => "YOUR_APP_SECRET",
"url" => "https://github.com/",
"verify_ssl" => false,
"args" => { "scope" => "user:email" }
}
]
```
For installation from source:
```
- { name: 'github', app_id: 'YOUR_APP_ID',
app_secret: 'YOUR_APP_SECRET',
url: "https://github.example.com/",
verify_ssl: false,
args: { scope: 'user:email' } }
```
For the changes to take effect, [reconfigure Gitlab] if you installed
via Omnibus, or [restart GitLab] if you installed from source.
You will also need to disable Git SSL verification on the server hosting GitLab with the following command:
```
$ git config --global http.sslVerify false
```
