[crypto] Do not allow build-time cryptography settings to be overridden

If a root certificate has been explicitly specified at build time
using TRUST=/path/to/cert then do not allow this to be overridden even
from a trustworthy settings source (such as VMware GuestInfo).

Similarly, if a client certificate (and private key) has been
explicitly specified at build time, then do not allow it to be
overridden at runtime.
