Fleet Server now uses [github/com/elastic/elastic-agent-libs v0.14.0](https://github.com/elastic/elastic-agent-libs/releases/tag/v0.14.0)
which by default configures server TLS verification mode as 'certificate'.
With this new default, when Fleet Server runs with Mutual TLS (mTLS) enabled,
it will only verify the presented client certificate during the TLS handshake,
without further validation against the `server_name` extension. Therefore
respecting the correct use of the 'server_name' extension as defined by
[RFC 6066](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6066). Previously
Fleet Server would attempt to perform a match, between the 'server_name' sent
by the client to either the client's certificate CN (common name), SANs or IPs.
Such verification would cause a rejection of the client's certificate if it
did not contain Fleet Server's host in either the CN, SANs or IPs.
