Chrome's TLS pinned are enforced in Brave

See original GitHub issue

Chrome’s list of pinned certs ends up being used in Brave, probably because of the copy of it that’s shipped via the PKI Metadata component (kp_pinslist.pb).

Need to figure out whether or not we should disable this.

Test URL (in Chrome’s list): https://pinning-test.badssl.com/
