Daiki Ueno created an issue: https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/-/issues/1100



The callback set by `gnutls_x509_trust_list_set_getissuer_function` is currently expected to (1) inspect the downloaded certificates are trusted and (2) inject it to the trust list with `gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_cas`. This process is error-prone and we should provide a better interface to prevent misuses.

The proposal is to change the callback type to return the downloaded certificates as an output parameter.
