Change https://golang.org/cl/246877 mentions this issue: crypto: check the Key Usage extension

I searched the crypto pkg and found there are two functions in crypto which relate to KU extension checking:
CheckSignature(x509.go 823) and verifyHandshakeSignature(auth.go 22). But it seems hard to check the KU inside the func body. I think maybe we can check KU before use one PublicKey.

KU extensions can also be checked with the Verify method available for certificates. If you are considering rewriting KU extension checking I suggest you also take a look at this:
https://go.googlesource.com/go/+/go1.15.6/src/crypto/x509/verify.go#803

I think the method makes a bit too straightforward assumption about KUs if the opts.KeyUsages is left empty. I'm not sure if it would be better to then assume that no usage is ok or to get the acceptable KUs from the cert chain.

Thanks everyone for the interaction. Not much action during Go1.16, thus I'll punt to Go1.17, and I'll kindly tag you @FiloSottile @katiehockman @rolandshoemaker to help review @SparrowLii's CL from #40100 (comment)

Is anything going to happen here for 1.17? Thanks.

Moving to Backlog since it doesn't appear someone is actively working on getting this into 1.17, and it can wait. Please update this issue if needed.
