ocsp: remove error for > 1 certificate in response

Some OCSP responders contain more than one certificate, which can be
used to "help the OCSP client verify the responders signature" (RFC
6960 section 4.2.1).  This client doesn't do verification of the chain
to the root, but it's not an error for a responder to send more than
one.

Fixes golang/go#21527
