SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER is going to happen for certificates that were issued through the Symantec CA. We should add an entry that explains that this might be happening and the user should let the website administrator know.

MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_ADDITIONAL_POLICY_CONSTRAINT_FAILED will be the primary error. Some servers will still prompt SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER if they are configured strangely, unfortunately. We can point to https://wiki.mozilla.org/CA/Upcoming_Distrust_Actions from MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_ADDITIONAL_POLICY_CONSTRAINT_FAILED, in particular.

Note: I've edited https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/what-does-your-connection-is-not-secure-mean to include the new error.

In Chrome, the error message mentions "ERR_CERT_SYMANTEC_LEGACY", which makes it really easy to connect the dots. Could we do something like that?
