HTTPS trust: use the public CA bundle + one missing root, not a pinned cert
Root-caused the earlier "No matching trusted root certificate found"
failure properly this time by reading ESP-IDF's actual bundle-matching
code (esp_crt_bundle.c): it looks up a trusted root by the ISSUER name
of whatever certificate it can't otherwise validate, not by matching
the presented certificate itself. The live server's chain ends in a
GTS Root R4 certificate cross-signed by the old GlobalSign Root CA R1
(common Cloudflare/Google Trust Services practice, for compatibility
with older/embedded clients) -- and ESP-IDF's current bundle snapshot
has dropped that old GlobalSign root entirely, so the lookup came up
empty. This was a general gap, not something specific to this one
deployment's cert.

Fix: keep the standard public CA bundle (esp_crt_bundle_attach) as the
trust mechanism -- so any normal reverse-proxy cert (Let's Encrypt,
etc.) works out of the box -- and add the one missing root on top via
ESP-IDF's CONFIG_MBEDTLS_CUSTOM_CERTIFICATE_BUNDLE mechanism
(sdkconfig.defaults), which appends a project-supplied cert file to the
bundle at build time. Fetched GlobalSign's official Root CA R1 cert and
cryptographically verified (openssl verify) it actually validates the
live server's certificate before embedding it -- see
firmware/main/certs/additional_root_ca.pem (replaces the old
tools_server_ca.pem, which pinned one exact certificate directly and
would've broken for anyone else's reverse proxy). Confirmed working
against the real deployment on hardware.
