[`git cherry-pick 4a39e2b67d4cddf58b0ea16dd821a04ee2240058`, with support for Edition 2018 added by Brian.] This commit introduces the Netflix BetterTLS[0]'s path building test suite to the webpki integration tests. This project has a test runner for Rustls that will stand up TLS servers to exercise these tests but: * It requires Go. * It needs Rustls in order to do a full TLS handshake with the test servers. * It's slower than testing the path building directly without the TLS bits. To avoid these issues this commit takes a different approach and vendors the exported path building test suite. This is a supported feature[1] of the upstream project and allow us to directly test webpki's path building against the test suite without needing Rustls or Go.

What is webpki?
webpki is a library that validates Web PKI (TLS/SSL) certificates. webpki is designed to provide a full implementation of the client side of the Web PKI to a diverse range of applications and devices, including embedded (IoT) applications, mobile apps, desktop applications, and server infrastructure. webpki is intended to not only be the best implementation of the Web PKI, but to also precisely define what the Web PKI is.
webpki is written in Rust and uses ring for signature verification.
webpki is strongly influenced by mozilla::pkix. You can read a little about the ideas underlying both mozilla::pkix and webpki in insanity::pkix: A New Certificate Path Building & Validation Library.
The Rust compiler statically guarantees there are no buffer overflows, uses-after-free, double-frees, data races, etc. in webpki. webpki takes advantage of Rust's borrow checker to ensure that its zero-copy parsing strategy is safe and efficient. webpki never allocates memory on the heap, and it maintains a tight bound on the amount of stack memory it uses. webpki avoids all superfluous PKIX features in order to keep its object code size small. Further reducing the code size of webpki is an important goal.
This release is the very first prototype. Lots of improvements are planned, including:
- An extensive automated test suite.
- Key pinning.
- Certificate Transparency support.
- Short-lived certificate, OCSP stapling, and CRLSet support.
- Customization of the supported algorithms, key sizes, and elliptic curves allowed during a validation.
- A C language wrapper interface to allow using webpki in non-Rust applications.
- A specification of precisely what the Web PKI is.
