[cabf_validation] Clarifying Acceptable Status Codes for Following Redirects in methods 18 and 19

[Niko Carpenter]

Methods 3.3.2.4.18 and 3.2.2.4.19, added in ballot SC25, say "Redirects MUST be the result of an HTTP status code result within the 3xx Redirection class of status codes, as defined in RFC 7231, Section 6.4." While I believe the intention was that following a 308 redirect should be acceptable, RFC 7231 does not define it.  Instead, it mentions, in section 6.4.7, that it is defined in RFC 7238. I think we should clarify that following a 308 redirect is acceptable in a new ballot, or the spring cleanup ballot.
