When the agent TLS mode is set to `strict`, the Fleet agent bypasses the operating system's CA store only for the duration of the agent registration process. Once registration is successful, the store can be used again, which enables Helm charts to be pulled from the agent.
No conflicts should happen between `JustBeforeEach` blocks, which resulted in agent TLS mode not being configured as expected.
Expectations run inside a function taking a `Gomega` argument must use that argument.

strict, the Fleet agent bypasses the operating system's CA store only for the duration of the agent registration process. Once registration is successful, the store can be used again, which enables Helm charts to be pulled from the agent.This does not compromise on security for the cluster registration process, while exposing HelmOps deployments to the limited risk of failing while cluster (re-)registration is in progress.
A cleaner alternative to this could consist in isolating cluster registration in its own container again, where the OS CA store could be bypassed entirely without affecting the Helm deployer.
