Transition from Crypt2.GetSignerCertChain to Crypt2.LastSignerCert

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated GetSignerCertChain method calls with LastSignerCert. CkPython

# Do the equivalent using LastSignerCert, and then get the certificate chain from the cert.
# Your application creates a new, empty Cert object which is passed 
# in the last argument and filled upon success.
