Drop cached certificate signature validity flag

It seems risky in the context of cross-signed certificates when the
same certificate might have multiple potential issuers.  Also rarely
used, since chains in OpenSSL typically only employ self-signed
trust-anchors, whose self-signatures are not checked, while untrusted
certificates are generally ephemeral.

(Imported from upstream's 0e76014e584ba78ef1d6ecb4572391ef61c4fb51.)

This is in master and not 1.0.2, but having a per-certificate signature
cache when this is a function of signature and issuer seems dubious at
best. Thanks to Viktor Dukhovni for pointing this change out to me.
(And for making the original change upstream, of course.)
