Some organizations will want to use private Certificate Authorities to
serve content to their clients. While it's possible to add the CA
to the system-wide CA store, that has two drawbacks:
1) Compromise of that cert means it can be used for other web traffic
2) All of ca-certificates is trusted
This patch allows a much stronger scenario where *only* the CAs in
tls-ca-path are used for verification from the given repository.

For many OS install scenarios, one runs through an installer which may
come with embedded data, and then the OS is configured post-install to
receive updates.
In this model, it'd be nice to avoid the post-install having to rewrite
the /ostree/repo/config file.
Additionally, it feels weird for admins to interact with "/ostree" -
let's make the system feel more like Unix and have our important
configuration in /etc.
