Move certificate handling to its own directory
Move certificate handling out of the kernel/ directory and into a certs/
directory to get all the weird stuff in one place and move the generated
signing keys into this directory.

22 | the keyring are considered to be trusted. Keys may be added at will | ||

25 | keys already in the keyring. | ||
