This function will return an intermediate type containing the name constraints of the provided NameConstraints extension. That can be used in combination with gnutls_x509_name_constraints_check() to verify whether a server's name is in accordance with the constraints. When the flags is set to GNUTLS_NAME_CONSTRAINTS_FLAG_APPEND, then if the nc type is empty this function will behave identically as if the flag was not set. Otherwise if there are elements in the nc structure then the constraints will be merged with the existing constraints following RFC5280 p6.1.4 (excluded constraints will be appended, permitted will be intersected). Note that nc must be initialized prior to calling this function.
