Tell OpenSSL to check the CA chain against the certificates in the
trusted store first.

It's possible to connect with https://bbuseruploads.s3.amazonaws.com/
again now, even though it uses a deprecated 1024 bits RSA certificate
in its CA chain.

R=@indutny, /cc @shigeki

Before merging this, I would like some discussion on whether X509_V_FLAG_TRUSTED_FIRST is really the best possible approach. I raised some questions about it here.

Cherry-pick the X509_V_FLAG_TRUSTED_FIRST patch from upstream OpenSSL.

This flag tells OpenSSL to check the CA chain against the trusted store
first.
This reverts commit 0926cb9.

This will be addressed by using the X509_V_FLAG_TRUSTED_FIRST flag
during verification.
Tell OpenSSL to check the CA chain against the certificates in the
trusted store first.

It's possible to connect with https://bbuseruploads.s3.amazonaws.com/

@bnoordhuis I'm kind of -1 on this. We already got a reply from OpenSSL dev team that this fix is kind of dangerous, because it is exposing timing of CA store lookup. Let's wait for reply from the OpenSSL before continuing with this.

Ah, I do wish people would hit reply to all when answering a mailing list post, I didn't receive the reply. For posterity: http://www.mail-archive.com/openssl-dev@openssl.org/msg37892.html

I also had a trouble to receive the openssl-dev mail last night. Seeing them, let's wait for a while. I've waited years for openssl-1.0.2 release to use ALPN.

@shigeki I have requested comments for my patch too, may be we could adapt it for our purposes somehow before 1.0.2 will see the true fix.

@indutny Indeed. Applying RT3621 is a good choice after reviewed. We should prepare to manage our private patches in deps/openssl not to forget to apply them in future updates.

I'm closing this PR. We can continue the discussion in #402.
