Shea Levy e375671437 Merge branch 'fix-nss' of https://github.com/aszlig/nixpkgs
Fix NSS library not finding root CA certificates.

This now uses more or less hardcoded CA certificates from Mozilla, which
is the case on Debian and Gentoo aswell. And it fixes the root CA
loading issue, as i discovered that firefox builds with the bundled
version of NSS. With this branch this is no longer the case.

My long-term plans are to integrate an automatic chainloader for
OPENSSL_X509_CERT_FILE, but I'm not sure if this is really a good idea
(hence not included in this branch), as the nss-pem module is still
somewhat experimental. Regardless of it's experimental nature i'm still
including it in order to make it possible for users to load custom PEM
encoded certificates into the NSS database.

This fixups also makes it possible to enable FIPS mode, in case someone
might be interested in that.

And finally, we have a Chromium without quirky bugs from the
experimental OpenSSL integration, which was my original motivation to do
this.

See #112 for further comments.
