       Get the Trusted Certificate Directory containing the trusted Certificate Authority
       certificates. This directory is determined in the order shown below. Failure in one method
       results in attempting the next.

       1.  X509_CERT_DIR environment variable - if this is set, the trusted certificates will be
           searched for in that directory. This variable allows the end user to specify the
           location of trusted certificates.
       2.  $HOME/.globus/certificates - If this directory exists, and the previous methods of
           determining the trusted certs directory failed, this directory will be used.
       3.  /etc/grid-security/certificates - This location is intended to be independent of the
           globus installation ($GLOBUS_LOCATION), and is generally only writeable by the host
           system administrator.
       4.  $GLOBUS_LOCATION/share/certificates
       Parameters:
           cert_dir The trusted certificates directory
       Returns:
           GLOBUS_SUCCESS if no error occurred, and a sufficient trusted certificates directory
           was found. Otherwise, an error object identifier returned.

           GLOBUS_PROXY_OUTPUT (a proxy filename for writing is requested), and the
           X509_USER_PROXY is set, this will be the resulting value of the user_proxy filename
           string passed in. If the proxy_file_type is set to GLOBUS_PROXY_INPUT and
           X509_USER_PROXY is set, but the file it points to does not exist, or has some other
           readability issues, the function will continue checking using the other methods
           available.
       2.  Check the default location for the proxy file of \/tmp\/x509_u\<user_id\> where \<user
           id\> is some unique string for that user on the host
