/**
 * <p>
 * Abstract class for X.509 certificates. This provides a standard
 * way to access all the attributes of an X.509 certificate.
 * <p>
 * In June of 1996, the basic X.509 v3 format was completed by
 * ISO/IEC and ANSI X9, which is described below in ASN.1:
 * <pre>
 * Certificate  ::=  SEQUENCE  {
 *     tbsCertificate       TBSCertificate,
 *     signatureAlgorithm   AlgorithmIdentifier,
 *     signature            BIT STRING  }
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * These certificates are widely used to support authentication and
 * other functionality in Internet security systems. Common applications
 * include Privacy Enhanced Mail (PEM), Transport Layer Security (SSL),
 * code signing for trusted software distribution, and Secure Electronic
 * Transactions (SET).
 * <p>
 * These certificates are managed and vouched for by <em>Certificate
 * Authorities</em> (CAs). CAs are services which create certificates by
 * placing data in the X.509 standard format and then digitally signing
 * that data. CAs act as trusted third parties, making introductions
 * between principals who have no direct knowledge of each other.
 * CA certificates are either signed by themselves, or by some other
 * CA such as a "root" CA.
 * <p>
 * More information can be found in
 * <a href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5280">RFC 5280: Internet X.509
 * Public Key Infrastructure Certificate and CRL Profile</a>.
 * <p>
 * The ASN.1 definition of {@code tbsCertificate} is:
 * <pre>
 * TBSCertificate  ::=  SEQUENCE  {
 *     version         [0]  EXPLICIT Version DEFAULT v1,
 *     serialNumber         CertificateSerialNumber,
 *     signature            AlgorithmIdentifier,
 *     issuer               Name,
 *     validity             Validity,
 *     subject              Name,
 *     subjectPublicKeyInfo SubjectPublicKeyInfo,
 *     issuerUniqueID  [1]  IMPLICIT UniqueIdentifier OPTIONAL,
 *                          -- If present, version must be v2 or v3
 *     subjectUniqueID [2]  IMPLICIT UniqueIdentifier OPTIONAL,
 *                          -- If present, version must be v2 or v3
 *     extensions      [3]  EXPLICIT Extensions OPTIONAL
 *                          -- If present, version must be v3
 *     }
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Certificates are instantiated using a certificate factory. The following is
 * an example of how to instantiate an X.509 certificate:
 * <pre>
 * try (InputStream inStream = new FileInputStream("fileName-of-cert")) {
 *     CertificateFactory cf = CertificateFactory.getInstance("X.509");
 *     X509Certificate cert = (X509Certificate)cf.generateCertificate(inStream);
 * }
 * </pre>

     * representing the eight 16-bit pieces of the address. OID names are
     * returned as {@code String}s represented as a series of nonnegative
     * integers separated by periods. And directory names (distinguished names)
     * are returned in <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2253.txt">
