[Request] generate a certificate signing request for AMT

[kaysond]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I want to set up AMT with TLS. Right now the interface allows you to either import a certificate+key or to generate a self-signed certificate. I have an existing pki that I can use to sign certificates, but I have to manually create the key, generate a signing request, sign it then copy both the cert and key over and import it. It takes a lot of steps and is very clunky.

Describe the solution you'd like Meshcentral can generate the private key and the signing request based on both user input and existing information (e. g. use the hostname as CN). The user then downloads the CSR, generates a signed certificate, then imports that. This is how iDRAC, ESXi, etc handles certificates. It's also more secure because you don't have to copy a private key around.

Describe alternatives you've considered You can do it all manually but it's a bit of a pain.
