Processing certificate subject alternative names in C++ is an unnecessary risk (plus, the current implementation uses NSS types). We should move this code to the frontend now that we have the new certificate viewer code in JS.

This removes nsIX509Cert.subjectAltNames and reduces potential attack surface
by avoiding parsing subject alternative names in C/C++. It also reduces PSM
reliance on NSS types.
