Good news! My problem is solved.

This did the trick.

Regarding the outdated version of GnuTLS available in Cygwin, I see that
these trust anchor changes constitute a workaround.

Furthermore, I see that ca-certificates-2.50-4 and
ca-certificates-letsencrypt-2.50-4 were released, which automate the
above quoted process. Very nice! My final question would be if
ca-certificates-letsencrypt will eventually be merged into
ca-certificates?

I am now happily browsing the web again in Cygwin Emacs. Thank you to
this mailing list and those in IRC who helped me debug the problem. I
learned a lot about certificate trust chains in the process!
