[ocsp] Accept response certID with missing hashAlgorithm parameters
One of the design goals of ASN.1 DER is to provide a canonical
serialization of a data structure, thereby allowing for equality of
values to be tested by simply comparing the serialized bytes.
Some OCSP servers will modify the request certID to omit the optional
(and null) "parameters" portion of the hashAlgorithm. This is
arguably legal but breaks the ability to perform a straightforward
bitwise comparison on the entire certID field between request and
response.
Fix by comparing the OID-identified hashAlgorithm separately from the
remaining certID fields.

Some CAs provide non-functional OCSP servers, and some clients are
forced to operate on networks without access to the OCSP servers.
Allow the user to explicitly disable the use of OCSP checks by
undefining OCSP_CHECK in config/crypto.h.

RFC2560 mandates that a valid OCSP response will contain exactly one
relevant certificate. However, some OCSP responders include
extraneous certificates. iPXE currently assumes that the first
certificate in the OCSP response is the relevant certificate; OCSP
checks will therefore fail if the responder includes the extraneous
certificates before the relevant certificate.
Fix by using the responder ID to identify the relevant certificate.

[crypto] Allow an error margin on X.509 certificate validity periods
iPXE has no concept of the local time zone, mainly because there is no
viable way to obtain time zone information in the absence of local
state. This causes potential problems with newly-issued certificates
and certificates that are about to expire.
Avoid such problems by allowing an error margin of around 12 hours on
certificate validity periods, similar to the error margin already
allowed for OCSP response timestamps.

Add support for constructing OCSP queries and parsing OCSP responses.
(There is no support yet for actually issuing an OCSP query via an
HTTP POST.)
