#84: Clarify that root certs have empty certificate_chain

 Suggested new text for 3.1 Log Entries in bis:

 {{{{
 "certificate_chain" is a chain of additional certificates required to
 verify the end-entity certificate.  If present, the first certificate
 MUST certify the end-entity certificate.  Each following certificate
 MUST directly certify the one preceding it.  The final certificate
 MUST either be, or be issued by, a root certificate accepted by the
 log.  A root certificate has an empty certificate_chain.
 }}}}

 See thread "Empty extra_data" for details.
