[crypto] Report meaningful error when certificate chain validation fails
If a certificate chain contains no certificate which can be validated
as a standalone certificate (i.e. contains no trusted root
certificates or previously-validated certificates) then iPXE will
currently return a fixed error EACCES_UNTRUSTED. This masks the
actual errors obtained when attempting to validate each certificate as
a standalone certificate, and so makes troubleshooting difficult for
the end user.
Fix by instead returning the error obtained when attempting to
validate the final certificate in the chain as a standalone
certificate. This error is most likely (though not guaranteed) to
represent the "real" problem.
