gh-107361: strengthen default SSL context flags by woodruffw · Pull Request #112389 · python/cpython

See python#107361: this adds `VERIFY_X509_STRICT` to make the default
SSL context perform stricter (per RFC 5280) validation, as well
as `VERIFY_X509_PARTIAL_CHAIN` to enforce more standards-compliant
path-building behavior.

As part of this changeset, I had to tweak `make_ssl_certs.py`
slightly to emit 5280-conforming CA certs. This changeset includes
the regenerated certificates after that change.
