Fix OCSP_basic_verify signer certificate validation
The function `OCSP_basic_verify` validates the signer certificate on an OCSP response. The internal function, ocsp_verify_signer, is responsible for this and is expected to return a 0 value in the event of a failure to verify. Unfortunately, due to a bug, it actually returns with a postive success response in this case. In the normal course of events OCSP_basic_verify will then continue and will fail anyway in the ocsp_check_issuer function because the supplied "chain" value will be empty in the case that ocsp_verify_signer failed to verify the chain. This will cause OCSP_basic_verify to return with a negative result (fatal error). Normally in the event of a failure to verify it should return with 0. However, in the case of the OCSP_NOCHECKS flag being used, OCSP_basic_verify will return with a positvie result. This could lead to callers trusting an OCSP Basic response when it should not be.
