New submission from l0x <l...@protonmail.com>:

This simple patch exposes OpenSSL's X509_V_FLAG_PARTIAL_CHAIN if it is defined. 
This lets us  trust a certificate if it is signed by a certificate in the trust 
store, even if that CA is not a root CA. It makes it possible to trust an 
intermediate CA without trusting the root and all the other intermediate CAs it 
has signed.
