[strongSwan] Reread of CA certificates, CRL checking

Hi,

I'll post the ipsec.conf files of the gateway and client again because
I created some new certificates. The gateway uses the certificate cert1.pem
with key cert1key.pem and has the CA certificates develop_cert.pem and
sales_cert.pem, together with the CRLs develop_crl.pem and sales_crl.pem.
The client uses the revoked cert2.pem with key cert2key.pem, cert1.pem
(as rightcert) and has the same CA certificates (but an outdated CRL of
the 'sales CA' sales_crl_old.pem).
The CA certificates and CRLs are stored in the corresponding /etc/ipsec.d/
directories, while the end entity certificates and keys are stored
outside of the /etc/ipsec.d/ directories and referenced with absolute
pathnames in the ipsec.conf and ipsec.secret files.

Best regards,
    Markus
