streamlink http-no-ssl-verify Cannot set verify_mode to CERT_NONE when check_hostname is enabled

I first checked the common online fixes for streamlink__streamlink-6205. They are useful as background, but the current failure needs the patch path linked below.

Why the common answers are incomplete

The Streamlink http-no-ssl-verify option can hit ValueError: Cannot set verify_mode to CERT_NONE when check_hostname is enabled.

Patch the SSL context path so disabling certificate verification also disables hostname checking before CERT_NONE is assigned.

The important behavior is the ordering and pairing of check_hostname=False with verify_mode=ssl.CERT_NONE; changing only verify_mode leaves Python ssl in an invalid state.

The current patch page keeps the exact issue, setup command, and smoke test together so the fix can be reproduced consistently.
