NIFI-5476 Added logic to check CA certificate signature against additional
certificates.
Moved utility code to TlsHelper.
Added unit tests.
Added command-line parsing for additional CA certificate path.
Added documentation on using the TLS Toolkit to generate and sign certificates
using an externally-signed CA.
Updated toolkit external CA documentation to be inline with additional context
from NIFI-5473.
Cleaned up toolkit documentation.
Improved error message by changing to absolute path.
Added Javadoc to and removed unthrown exception declarations from
TlsHelper#verifyCertificateSignature().
Cleaned up unit tests with utility method.
Fixed checkstyle error.
Support conversion of a PKCS#8 formatted private key automatically to avoid
forcing the user to do that. Also add some log messages for debugging when the
parser fails to parse the appropriate object
Incorporated Peter's contribution for PKCS #8 to PKCS #1 conversion.
Added documentation and refactored methods.
Refactored unit test.

> Key: NIFI-5473
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5473
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation & Website, Security, Tools and Build
> Affects Versions: 1.7.1
> Reporter: Andy LoPresto
> Assignee: Andy LoPresto
> Priority: Major
> Labels: certificate, documentation, security, tls, tls-toolkit
> Fix For: 1.8.0
>
>
> With some manual work, the TLS toolkit can be used with a pre-existing
> certificate and private key that has been signed by an organization's
> certificate authority (CA) to sign toolkit-generated certificates. The Admin
> Guide should be improved to cover the necessary steps.
> When the separate "Security Guide" / "Toolkit Guide" is created, this content
> should be migrated there.
