Description

We need a new certificate for root that is known secure. This root key should be offline and airgapped, and very long lived. It shoud only be used to create one or a few signing keys, which will be the keys/certs used to manage day-to-day signing operations, and will have shorter (but still fairly long) lifetimes. The Root key will thus be able to revoke any compromised signing keys, and generate new signing keys as the existing ones expire.
