Roland Shoemaker 2de2f6df64 crypto/x509: add new CRL parser, deprecate old one
Adds a new, cryptobyte based, CRL parser, which returns a
x509.RevocaitonList, rather than a pkix.CertificateList. This allows us
to return much more detailed information, as well as leaving open the
option of adding further information since RevocationList is not a
direct ASN.1 representation like pkix.CertificateList. Additionally
a new method is added to RevocationList, CheckSignatureFrom, which is
analogous to the method with the same name on Certificate, which
properly checks that the signature is from an issuing certiifcate.

This change also deprecates a number of older CRL related functions and
types, which have been replaced with the new functionality introduced
in this change:
  * crypto/x509.ParseCRL
  * crypto/x509.ParseDERCRL
  * crypto/x509.CheckCRLSignature
  * crypto/x509/pkix.CertificateList
  * crypto/x509/pkix.TBSCertificateList

Fixes #50674

Vendoring in std and cmd
========================

The Go command maintains copies of external packages needed by the
standard library in the src/vendor and src/cmd/vendor directories.

In GOPATH mode, imports of vendored packages are resolved to these
directories following normal vendor directory logic
(see golang.org/s/go15vendor).

In module mode, std and cmd are modules (defined in src/go.mod and
src/cmd/go.mod). When a package outside std or cmd is imported
by a package inside std or cmd, the import path is interpreted
as if it had a "vendor/" prefix. For example, within "crypto/tls",
an import of "golang.org/x/crypto/cryptobyte" resolves to
"vendor/golang.org/x/crypto/cryptobyte". When a package with the
same path is imported from a package outside std or cmd, it will
be resolved normally. Consequently, a binary may be built with two
copies of a package at different versions if the package is
imported normally and vendored by the standard library.

Vendored packages are internally renamed with a "vendor/" prefix
to preserve the invariant that all packages have distinct paths.
This is necessary to avoid compiler and linker conflicts. Adding
a "vendor/" prefix also maintains the invariant that standard
library packages begin with a dotless path element.

The module requirements of std and cmd do not influence version
selection in other modules. They are only considered when running
module commands like 'go get' and 'go mod vendor' from a directory
in GOROOT/src.

Maintaining vendor directories
==============================

Before updating vendor directories, ensure that module mode is enabled.
Make sure GO111MODULE=off is not set ('on' or 'auto' should work).

Requirements may be added, updated, and removed with 'go get'.
The vendor directory may be updated with 'go mod vendor'.
A typical sequence might be:

    cd src
    go get -d golang.org/x/net@latest
    go mod tidy
    go mod vendor

Use caution when passing '-u' to 'go get'. The '-u' flag updates
modules providing all transitively imported packages, not only
the module providing the target package.

Note that 'go mod vendor' only copies packages that are transitively
imported by packages in the current module. If a new package is needed,
it should be imported before running 'go mod vendor'.
