ANIMA BRSKI is an RFC7030 extension.
ANIMA constrained-BRSKI (draft-ietf-anima-constrained-voucher) is an
extension of ACE's draft-ietf-ace-coaps-est, which is a constrained version
of 7030.  [Yes, I'm an author on all of those]
It still uses CSRs (binary DER, never PEM encoded).

We are going to be using CSR until we have something like CoID.
