When the hash algorithm for the signature is not available the digest size
is 0 and the signature in the certificate is marked as unsupported.

When validating a self-signed certificate, this needs to be checked,
because otherwise trying to validate the signature will fail with an
warning:

Loading compiled-in X.509 certificates
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at crypto/rsa-pkcs1pad.c:537 \
pkcs1pad_verify+0x46/0x12c
...
Problem loading in-kernel X.509 certificate (-22)
