[mdh1418]

The dotnet-linker-tests pipeline osx-x64 runtime release lane has been failing frequently since job #20240709.4 with a failure stemming from HttpClient.GetAsync(string)

  Unhandled exception. System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: The SSL connection could not be established, see inner exception.

At a glance, it seems to be an authentication issue, similar to #104605 where both hit
SslStream.ForceAuthenticationAsync -> SslStream.ProcessTlsFrame

Given that #103419 changed ProcessTlsFrame, it seems more likely those changes are the culprit, as suspected in #104605
