NSS will not return invalid or irrelevant intermediate certificates
that the server presented as part of the certificate chain. GnuTLS,
however, will return them, which breaks our certificate validation
when the server is mis-configured.
This fixes our GnuTLS SSL plugin to discard any certificate (and
subsequent certs) in the chain if it did not sign the previous
certificate. This allows GnuTLS users to connect to
omega.contacts.msn.com while it is still misconfigured.
