Checks to see if the supplied hostname matches any of the supplied CNs
or "DNS" Subject-Alts.  Most implementations only look at the first CN,
and ignore any additional CNs.  Most implementations do look at all of
the "DNS" Subject-Alts. The CNs or Subject-Alts may contain wildcards
according to RFC 2818.

Params:
  • cns –         CN fields, in order, as extracted from the X.509
                   certificate.
  • subjectAlts – Subject-Alt fields of type 2 ("DNS"), as extracted
                   from the X.509 certificate.
  • host –        The hostname to verify.
Throws:
