be more relaxed about verifying SSL certificate chains

                 Key: COUCHDB-840
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-840
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 1.0
            Reporter: Adam Kocoloski
             Fix For: 1.0.1


The new Erlang SSL implementation (which we use to consume _changes) has a 
default verification depth of 1.  This causes pull replication from an 
SSL-wrapped server to fail if the server has an intermediate certificate in its 
chain.  Intermediate certificates are pretty common especially at the cheaper 
end, e.g. GoDaddy certs.  OpenSSL uses a default depth of 9; I think we should 
do the same.
