MINOR: ssl/ckch: certificates generation from "load" "crt-store" directive

Add "generate" on/off type keyword to "load" directive to automatically generate
certificates as this is done for ACME from ckch_conf_load_pem_or_generate()
function which is called if a "crt" keyword is also provide for this directive.

Also implement "keytype" to specify the key type used for these certificates.
Only "RSA" or "ECDSA" is accepted. This patch also implements "bits" keyword
for the "load" directive to specify the private key size used for RSA. For
ECDSA, a new "curves" keyword is also provided by this patch to specify the curves
to be used for the EDCSA private keys generation.

ACME code has been modified to use these new parameters. acme_gen_x509()
new function is implemented from acme_gen_tmp_x509() to took an EVP_KEY parameter
as unique parameter contraty to acme_gen_tmp_x509() which directly used <tmp_key>
global EVP_KEY variable initialized by ACME as temporary key before retreiving its
own keys. <tmp_key> is generated by acme_EVP_PKEY_gen() as an 2048 bits RSA key.
This latter function is used by ckch_conf_load_pem_or_generate() with the parameters
provided by "keytype", "bits" and "curves" to generate the private key before
generating the X509 certificate calling acme_gen_x509().

@ -31718,6 +31718,30 @@ jwt [ off | on ]
This option can be changed during runtime via the "add ssl jwt" and "del ssl
jwt" CLI commands. See also "show ssl jwt" CLI command.
generate-dummy [ off | on ]
Allow the generation of a private key and its self-signed certificate at
parsing time when set to 'on'. This may be useful if one does not have a
certificate at disposal during testing phase for instance. In this case,
"keytype", "bits" and "curves" may be used to customize the private key. When
not used, the default value is 'off'. (also see "keytype", "bits" and
"curves").
keytype [ RSA | ECDSA ]
Allow the selection of the private key type used to generate at parsing time
a self-signed certificate. This is the case if "generate-dummy" is set to 'on'
for this certificate. When not used, the default is 'RSA'.
(also see "generate-dummy").
bits <number>
Configure the number of bits to generate an RSA self-signed certificate when
"generate-dummy" is set to 'on' for this self-signed certificate and "keytype"
is set to 'RSA'. When not used, the default is 2048. (also see
"generate-dummy").
curves <string>
Configure the curves when "generate-dummy" is set to 'on' and "keytype" is
set to 'ECDSA" for this self-signed certificate. The default is 'P-384'.
