    Add certificate validation
    
    This change adds support for certificate validation, including
    certificate inspection utilities. Validating a certificate
    requires the certificate UUID of the certificate to validate,
    a set of UUIDs corresponding to the set of trusted certificates
    needed to validate the certificate, and a user context for
    authentication to the key manager. A new certificate verification
    context is included that is used to store the set of trusted
    certificates once they are loaded from the key manager. This
    context is used to validate the signing certificate, verifying
    that the certificate belongs to a valid certificate chain rooted
    in the set of trusted certificates.
    
    All new certificate utility code is added in a new module named
    certificate_utils.
