encoding/gob: make x509.Certificate marshalable again
The OID type is not exported data like most of the other x509 structs. Using it in x509.Certificate made Certificate not gob-compatible anymore, which breaks real-world code. As a temporary fix, make gob ignore that field, making it work as well as it did in Go 1.21. For Go 1.23, we anticipate adding a proper fix and removing the gob workaround. See #65633 and #66249 for more details. For #66249. Fixes #65633.
