Re:
I'm not sure it's necessary to check for CRL from XML document if valid CRL
is installed, though it's necessary to check for CRL from XML if chain
status is CERT_TRUST_REVOCATION_STATUS_UNKNOWN ...

This makes sense given that Verification Authorities tend to keep very
up-to-date CRL lists which have new entries posted within the "Next Update"
timeframe of the current CRL.

As such the order would be 

1) check for valid non-expired CRL from store (assuming something is keeping
them up to date in that store)

2) check CRL in document only if nothing exists in 1) above
