Hello.

When the server certificate validity is not required in a TLS session (e.g.
TLS_REQCERT is set to 'never'), expired certificate of the issuer of the server
certificate causes the connection to be terminated.

Uploaded patch fixes this by adding SEC_ERROR_EXPIRED_ISSUER_CERTIFICATE error
to the list of ignored errors, when the certificate is not being checked. The
patch is created against OPENLDAP_REL_ENG_2_4 branch.
