Certificate Key Display Changes

The CHKCERT command has been modified to always display the key size and type of the certificate. If a private key exists for the certificate, the header indicates Private Key Size and Private Key Type. If no private key exists for the certificate being displayed, the header indicates Public Key Bit Size and Public Key Type.

A similar change has been made to the Certificate Utility. Previously, the key size was displayed only when a private key existed for the certificate (or was returned when specifying a key ring). With these changes, a key size is always displayed and the header indicates whether a private key exists or if only a public key exists.
