[1/3] Initial infrastructure for SSL root bundle in base This setup will add the trusted certificates from the Mozilla NSS bundle to base. This commit includes: - CAROOT option to opt out of installation of certs - mtree amendments for final destinations - infrastructure to fetch/update certs, along with instructions A follow-up commit will add a certctl(8) utility to give the user control over trust specifics. Another follow-up commit will actually commit the initial result of updatecerts. This work was done primarily by allanjude@, with minor contributions by myself.

# $FreeBSD$
This directory contains the scripts to update the TLS CA Root Certificates
that comprise the 'root trust store'.
The 'updatecerts' make target should be run periodically by secteam@
specifically when there is an important change to the list of trusted root
certificates included by Mozilla.
It will:
1) Remove the old trusted certificates (cleancerts)
2) Download the latest certdata.txt from Mozilla (fetchcerts)
3) Split certdata.txt into the individual .pem files (updatecerts)

1) Any no-longer-trusted certificates should be moved to the
secure/caroot, certctl: Rename secure/caroot/blacklisted Old certctl commands still work for compatability, but are deprecated. Approved by: secteam (gordon) Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D30807

The following make targets exist:
cleancerts:
Delete the old certificates, run as a dependency of updatecerts.
fetchcerts:
Download the latest certdata.txt from the Mozilla NSS hg repo
See the changelog here:
https://hg.mozilla.org/projects/nss/log/tip/lib/ckfw/builtins/certdata.txt
updatecerts:
Runs a perl script (MAca-bundle.pl) on the downloaded certdata.txt
to generate the individual certificate files (.pem) and store them
in the trusted/ directory.
