change error message for missing certificate
The old error message is quite similar to the openssl `failed to retrieve
issuer certificate` and can mislead users to troubleshooting certificate stores.
The new message should be distinct enough to make it clear to users that this
is not a problem raised by the underlying SSL implementation, but a problem
inside monitoring-plugins.
