/*
  Implement the functionality of a simple CA: read in a CA certificate,
  the associated private key, and a PKCS #10 certificate request. Sign the
  request and print out the new certificate.

  File names are hardcoded for simplicity.
    cacert.pem:    The CA's certificate (perhaps created by self_sig)
    caprivate.pem: The CA's private key
    req.pem:       The user's PKCS #10 certificate request
