iotests: avoid broken pipe with certtool

When we run "certtool 2>&1 | head -1" the latter command is likely to
complete and exit before certtool has written everything it wants to
stderr. In at least the RHEL-7 gnutls 3.3.29 this causes certtool to
quit with broken pipe before it has finished writing the desired
output file to disk. This causes non-deterministic failures of the
iotest 233 because the certs are sometimes zero length files.
If certtool fails the "head -1" means we also lose any useful error
message it would have printed.

Thus this patch gets rid of the pipe and post-processes the output in a
more flexible & reliable manner.
