(For reference: https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7783)

In 2.7, we have both a "cert" application and a new "certificate" face-
based app, and they both have a "generate" action. Unfortunately, they
do completely different things: `puppet cert generate rhubarb.pie.lan`
makes a new signed certificate, and `puppet certificate generate
rhubarb.pie.lan --ca-location remote` submits a certificate signing
request to the CA. That's bad and confusing.

I would suggest just renaming the action, but since we already have a
certificate_request face, I think we should move it there. (And then
rename it, preferably to "submit".) Does everyone agree on this call,
or is there a better option I've missed?
