Overview
This function will try to verify the given certificate and return its status. Note that a verification error does not imply a negative return status. In that case the verify status is set.
The details of the verification are the same as in gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_crt2().
Returns
On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a negative error value.
