Filippo Valsorda ec732632c2 crypto/tls: refactor certificate and signature algorithm logic
This refactors a lot of the certificate support logic to make it cleaner
and reusable where possible. These changes will make the following CLs
much simpler.

In particular, the heavily overloaded pickSignatureAlgorithm is gone.
That function used to cover both signing and verifying side, would work
both for pre-signature_algorithms TLS 1.0/1.1 and TLS 1.2, and returned
sigalg, type and hash.

Now, TLS 1.0/1.1 and 1.2 are differentiated at the caller, as they have
effectively completely different logic. TLS 1.0/1.1 simply use
legacyTypeAndHashFromPublicKey as they employ a fixed hash function and
signature algorithm for each public key type. TLS 1.2 is instead routed
through selectSignatureScheme (on the signing side) or
isSupportedSignatureAlgorithm (on the verifying side) and
typeAndHashFromSignatureScheme, like TLS 1.3.

On the signing side, signatureSchemesForCertificate was already version
aware (for PKCS#1 v1.5 vs PSS support), so selectSignatureScheme just
had to learn the Section 7.4.1.4.1 defaults for a missing
signature_algorithms to replace pickSignatureAlgorithm.

On the verifying side, pickSignatureAlgorithm was also checking the
public key type, while isSupportedSignatureAlgorithm +
typeAndHashFromSignatureScheme are not, but that check was redundant
with the one in verifyHandshakeSignature.

There should be no major change in behavior so far. A few minor changes
came from the refactor: we now correctly require signature_algorithms in
TLS 1.3 when using a certificate; we won't use Ed25519 in TLS 1.2 if the
client didn't send signature_algorithms; and we don't send
ec_points_format in the ServerHello (a compatibility measure) if we are
not doing ECDHE anyway because there are no mutually supported curves.

The tests also got simpler because they test simpler functions. The
caller logic switching between TLS 1.0/1.1 and 1.2 is tested by the
transcript tests.
