Take shortcut for directly trusted EE cert

This is a slight change of behaviour in that the previous condition was:
- same subject
- signature matches
while the new condition is:
- exact same certificate

However the documentation for mbedtls_x509_crt_verify() (note on trust_ca)
mentions the new condition, so code that respected the documentation will keep
working.

In addition, this is a bit faster as it doesn't check the self-signature
(which never needs to be checked for certs in the trusted list).
