Hello,

I encountered a problem when attempting to connect to a WPA2 Enterprise
network with iwd, that I think is caused by ell not understanding some
certificates.

I'm pretty confident that it should be valid to point EAP-TTLS-CACert to
the /etc/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt that comes with my distro.  I believe
this has worked with NetworkManager/wpa_supplicant for me in the past.
It doesn't work with iwd/ell, because
l_pem_load_certificate_list_from_data will error if any of the entries
in the provided PEM data don't have the "CERTIFICATE" label, but some of
the entries in my ca-bundle.crt have the "TRUSTED CERTIFICATE" label.

I think ell should therefore either support trusted certificates (or at
least give up if it finds any), so that users don't need to manually
configure a certificate for networks with certificates signed by a CA in
the system's bundle.
