1. trust_anchor: clarify and rename extract_trust_anchor …

   This function has caused some confusion w.r.t self-signed end-entity
   certificates and their support within rustls/webpki. This commit takes
   two actions:
   
   1. It renames `extract_trust_anchor` to
      `anchor_from_trusted_cert` to emphasize that the input
      **must** be from a trusted source that has already evaluated the
      certificate as suitable for use as a trust anchor.
   2. It adds more detail to the rustdoc comment for the function, in
      particular emphasizing why no additional validations are performed,
      and that it is not appropriate to use with an end-entity certificate
      in an attempt to support self-signed certificate use-cases.
