UID chaining has been removed from the most recent draft of the
PKIX certification and CRL profile
(http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-pkix-new-part1-03.txt).

Therefore, the CertPath API (JSR 055) should be simplified by removing those methods
and constructors that accept uids as parameters with the intention
of using them for UID chaining checks:

  PKIXParameters(PublicKey, String, boolean[])
  PKIXParameters.getInitialUniqueID()
  PKIXParameters.setCAPublicKeyAndName(PublicKey, String, boolean[])
  PKIXBuilderParameters(PublicKey, String, boolean[], CertSelector)
