#15180: Google Certificate is cached only once when Google Apps account is enabled
too

As darkrain42 pointed out in ticket #2856, Pidgin caches only one
certificate per server.
I have two accounts - a Gmail account, and a Google Apps account. If I
enable only the Gmail account, Pidgin authenticates correctly. If I enable
the Google Apps account afterwards, Pidgin authenticates that one
correctly too.
If I disable both accounts, then enable the Google Apps one, Pidgin
authenticates correctly. Now the bug - if I additionally enable the Gmail
account after the Google Apps one is logged in, I get the following
misleadnig error:
{{{
The certificate for talk.google.com could not be validated.
The certificate claims to be from "gmail.com" instead. This could mean
that you are not connecting to the service you believe you are.
}}}
So the sequence that triggers the bug is:
1. enable Google Apps account
2. enable Gmail account.
It would be great if this were fixed, and not see those scary MITM
certificate error popups when my Wi-Fi reconnects :)
