Add support for parsing certificate formats other than raw, DER-encoded certificates - specifically formats that represent collections of certificates. The certificate format can now be specified as an explicit format, or as a bit-mask of formats that are acceptable/expected, with the first parsable format winning.

This is one half of a commit to address BUG #37142, with the second half involving connecting this through the X509UserCertHandler and the actual UI.
