With the global options we can now avoid that a user changes the
Root-CA trust by editing the trustlist.txt. However, to implement
this we need a new option so that we don't need to rely on some magic
like --no-allow-mark-trusted has been put into a force section.
The second option makes system administration easier as it allows to
keep the trustlist in a non-distributed file.
