There were a few places in the code where certs were loaded from a
PKCS#7 file or a chain in a PEM file. The certificates got very
generic nicknames.
We can instead pull the subject from the certificate and use that as
the nickname.

For the most part certificates will be treated as being in DER format.
When we load a certificate we will generally accept it in any format but
will convert it to DER before proceeding in normalize_certificate().
This also re-arranges a bit of code to pull some certificate-specific
functions out of ipalib/plugins/service.py into ipalib/x509.py.
This also tries to use variable names to indicate what format the certificate
is in at any given point:
dercert: DER
cert: PEM
nsscert: a python-nss Certificate object
rawcert: unknown format

The changes include:
* Change license blobs in source files to mention GPLv3+ not GPLv2 only
* Add GPLv3+ license text
* Package COPYING not LICENSE as the license blobs (even the old ones)
mention COPYING specifically, it is also more common, I think

This patch does the following:
- drops our in-tree x509v3 parser to use the python-nss one
- return more information on certificates
- make an API change, renaming cert-get to cert-show
- Drop a lot of duplicated code
The pyOpenSSL PKCS#10 parser doesn't support attributes so we can't identify
requests with subject alt names.
Subject alt names are only allowed if:
- the host for the alt name exists in IPA
- if binding as host principal, the host is in the services managedBy attr
