crypto/x509: match cgo and Apple behavior in domain fallback of macOS roots

This change makes the direct call darwin loadSystemRoots implementation
match the existing cgo implementation, which in turn _mostly_ matches
the Apple implementation. The main change here is that when
SecTrustSettingsCopyTrustSettings the error is ignored, and can either
cause a fallback to check admin trust settings, or cause the
certificate to be marked kSecTrustSettingsResultUnspecified.

As well as updating the implementation to match the cgo one, this
change also updates the documentation of how the fallbacks work and
how they match the Apple implementations. References are made to the
Apple source where appropriate. This change does not update the
existing comments in the cgo implementation, since the goal is to
delete that code once the direct call implementation is matured.

Updates #38888
