RFC8446 is not really very clear in this regards. All it says is:
"In TLS 1.3, the server's OCSP information
is carried in an extension in the CertificateEntry containing the
associated certificate. Specifically, the body of the
"status_request" extension from the server MUST be a
CertificateStatus structure as defined in [RFC6066], which is
interpreted as defined in [RFC6960]."
Putting everything in a single CertificateEntry gives you equivalence with what
can be achieved in TLSv1.2 and is allowed by the syntax of a CertificateStatus
structure. So I *think* this is ok.
It is not described how one should interpret a single CertificateStatus covering
the whole chain, vs individual CertificateStatus entries, one for each Certificate.
