pagekite: Fix expired certificates causing connection failures

This is to make Pagekite use certficates shipped by Debian. Otherwise by
default, it uses internally shipped certificates that may be outdated. See:
https://pagekite.wordpress.com/2020/05/30/tls-certificate-validation-issues/

Tests performed:

- Without the patch, configure pagekite with a proper account. Notice that
pagekite fails to connect to the server due to SSL failures.

- Stop FreedomBox, apply the patch, run ./setup.py and run FreedomBox. File
/etc/pagekite.d/90_freedombox_certs.rc is present. Pagekite is restarted by
restarts. It start connecting to the server successfully.
