feat(commands): enhance crypto generation capabilities (#2842) This expands the functionality of the certificates and rsa commands and merges them into one command called cypto which can either use the cert or pair subcommands to generate certificates or key-pairs respectively. The rsa, ecdsa, and ed25519 subcommands exist for both the cert and pair commands. A new --ca-path argument for the cert subcommand allows Authelia to sign other certs with CA certs.
