* Identifiers for an asymmetric key ID. We have three ways of looking up a
* key derived from an X.509 certificate:
*
* (1) Serial Number & Issuer. Non-optional. This is the only valid way to
* map a PKCS#7 signature to an X.509 certificate.
*
* (2) Issuer & Subject Unique IDs. Optional. These were the original way to
* match X.509 certificates, but have fallen into disuse in favour of (3).
*
* (3) Auth & Subject Key Identifiers. Optional. SKIDs are only provided on
* CA keys that are intended to sign other keys, so don't appear in end
* user certificates unless forced.
*
* We could also support an PGP key identifier, which is just a SHA1 sum of the
* public key and certain parameters, but since we don't support PGP keys at
* the moment, we shall ignore those.
*
* What we actually do is provide a place where binary identifiers can be
* stashed and then compare against them when checking for an id match.
