Patch to add make option

The current ca_root_nss package will bundle up certificates based on their
Subject and Serial, this works well for most packages but it does present a
problem for OpenVPN.  OpenVPN insists only on unique Subjects, see
https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/60254/

Currently StartSSL has two certs in ca_root_nss, Serial 0 and 45.  They
represent SHA1 and SHA256.  The attached patch will use Serial 45 cert and
ignore the SHA1 cert (based on larger Serial Numbers).

Ideally the solution is to get OpenVPN to properly handle multiple CAs with=
 the
same Subject line (using the Serial) but until then, this is plausable
workaround.  This option is not on by default.
