core: pass certificates as blobs to supplicant for private connections

In case of private connections, the device has already read the
certificates and keys content from disk, validating that the owner of
the connection has access to them. Pass those files as blobs to the
supplicant so that it doesn't have to read them again from the
filesystem, creating the opportunity for TOCTOU bugs.

* For private connections (the ones that specify a user in the
"connection.permissions" property), verify that the user can access
the 802.1X certificates and keys set in the connection.
