I think you're right. The database schema itself is not limiting to
one order per authorization, but the current code is making that
assumption.

We could change getOrderByAuthorization() to getOrdersByAuthorization(),
then move this code into a loop to process all orders associated to
that authorization:
https://github.com/dogtagpki/pki/blob/master/base/acme/src/org/dogtagpki/acme/server/ACMEChallengeService.java#L124-L144

If we want to reuse existing authorizations, we will need to modify this
code to find an existing authorization that is still valid instead of
creating a new one:
https://github.com/dogtagpki/pki/blob/master/base/acme/src/org/dogtagpki/acme/server/ACMENewOrderService.java#L72-L83
