RFR 8140422: Add mechanism to allow non default root CAs to be not subject to algorithm restrictions

I need a code review of this change:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ascarpino/8140422/webrev/

Currently CertPath algorithm restrictions allow or deny all 
certificates.  This change adds the ability to reject certificate chains 
that contain a restricted algorithm and the chain terminates at a root 
CA; therefore, allowing a self-signed or chain that does not terminate 
at a root CA.

Thanks

Tony
