(ITS#7276) [PATCH] MozNSS: allow CA certdb together with PEM CA bundle file

Submission from: (NULL) (209.132.186.34)


With Mozilla NSS crypto backend:

Prior to this patch, if TLS_CACERTDIR was set to Mozilla NSS certificate
database and TLS_CACERT was set to a PEM bundle file with CA
certificates, the PEM file content was not loaded.

With this patch and the same settings, OpenLDAP can verify certificates
which are signed by CAs stored both in certdb and PEM bundle file.

This problem was found with FreeIPA which is setting CA PEM bundle using
ldap_set_option(&ld, LDAP_OPT_X_TLS_CACERTFILE, ...), while TLS_CACERTDIR with
certdb is set in system ldap.conf file.
