IPA certificate operations

Implements a set of commands for managing server SSL certificates.

Certificate requests exist in the form of a Certificate Signing Request (CSR)
in PEM format.

The dogtag CA uses just the CN value of the CSR and forces the rest of the
subject to values configured in the server.

A certificate is stored with a service principal and a service principal
needs a host.

In order to request a certificate:

* The host must exist
* The service must exist (or you use the --add option to automatically add it)

SEARCHING:

Certificates may be searched on by certificate subject, serial number,
revocation reason, validity dates and the issued date.

When searching on dates the _from date does a >= search and the _to date
does a <= search. When combined these are done as an AND.

Dates are treated as GMT to match the dates in the certificates.

The date format is YYYY-mm-dd.

EXAMPLES:

 Request a new certificate and add the principal:
   ipa cert-request --add --principal=HTTP/lion.example.com example.csr

 Retrieve an existing certificate:
   ipa cert-show 1032

 Revoke a certificate (see RFC 5280 for reason details):
   ipa cert-revoke --revocation-reason=6 1032

 Remove a certificate from revocation hold status:
   ipa cert-remove-hold 1032

 Check the status of a signing request:
   ipa cert-status 10

 Search for certificates by hostname:
   ipa cert-find --subject=ipaserver.example.com

 Search for revoked certificates by reason:
   ipa cert-find --revocation-reason=5

 Search for certificates based on issuance date
   ipa cert-find --issuedon-from=2013-02-01 --issuedon-to=2013-02-07

IPA currently immediately issues (or declines) all certificate requests so
the status of a request is not normally useful. This is for future use
or the case where a CA does not immediately issue a certificate.

The following revocation reasons are supported:

    * 0 - unspecified
    * 1 - keyCompromise
    * 2 - cACompromise
    * 3 - affiliationChanged
    * 4 - superseded
    * 5 - cessationOfOperation
    * 6 - certificateHold
    * 8 - removeFromCRL
    * 9 - privilegeWithdrawn
    * 10 - aACompromise

Note that reason code 7 is not used.  See RFC 5280 for more details:
