This PR refactors @simplewebauthn/server to use the @peculiar/x509 library for X.509 certificate chain validation. The X.509 validation logic I'd written could not verify an attestation response when a P-384 ECDSA public key appeared in
x5cin an"android-key"response from Android 10, and I couldn't immediately identify why. I decided this was a good time to re-evaluate why this project needed its own X.509 validation logic when more battle-tested libraries exist to handle edge cases I hadn't accounted for.Fixes #705.
