Have the cryptoapicert option find the first matching certificate
in store that is valid at the present time. Currently the first
found item, even if expired, is returned.

This makes it possible to update certifiates in store without having
to delete old ones. As a side effect, if only expired certificates are
found, the connection fails.

Also remove some unnecessary casts.

Tested on Windows 10.
Trac #966

v4: Handle the case when an unknown certificate specification is passed
to find_certificate_in_store().

Note: Warnings printed from find_certificate_in_store() could show up
multiple times as its called for each certificate store. This could
be improved in a future patch.

Built and tested with MSVC on Windows 10 - code skips expired certificate
and picks valid one.

Tested that code doesn't explode if --cryptoapicert has unsupported value.

Your patch has been applied to the master branch.

Haven't done any real testing, just test build on MinGW (to have "the
other build environment").  Passes :-)

Hi,

is this one and aa6affe6df811db11577847366a569def0a3e314 also material
for release/2.4?  So "feature" or "bug" category?

(I've left this sit in my inbox and also in patchwork to remind me that
I wanted to clarify this, and then never got around to actually do so)

Yes it would be good to get this one and aa6affe into 2.4. This one
will cherry-pick with a minor conflict in cryptoapicert.c, easily
resolved. aa6affe should cherry-pick with no issues.

That conflict was trivial indeed.  I fixed an occurrance of "else {"
while at it (whitespace only).

Test built on Ubuntu/MinGW, not actually tested the resulting binary.

Cursory review of the code also does not reveal anything unexpected.
