The global sslproxy_* directives control what Squid uses on DIRECT
traffic when it needs to handle all the SSL/TLS details of a https:// URL.

cache_peer contains settings for a specific hard-coded link between this
Squid and another software which can handle HTTP (proxy or origin
server). SSL/TLS are some which can be set when that link needs to be
encrypted.

There is also a third location where SSL certs etc are setup. On
http_port when Squid is the receiving end of SSL/TLS connections.
