Nextcloud - cert validataion in chroot

Hi ports@,

The News app in Nextcloud throws an error message about the server
certificate when you try to subscribe to a feed with https. The reason
is the missing list of trusted CAs in the chroot(2). The following patch
describes the solution for this.

Cheers,
Bruno
