Follow roughly https://blog.felipe-alfaro.com/2005/11/18/setting-up-
certificate-authority-ca-using-openssl/ to setup CA

Generate req & spkac => however somehow my spkac only had the SPKAC=
line so I had to edit in:

countryName=AU
stateOrProvinceName=Some-State
organizationName=Internet Widgits Pty Ltd
commonName=foo

To make it a valid spkac for batch processing.

Then yeah the batch command generates binary garbage to stdout.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * openssl command line utility option parsing has regressed in
  1.1.0i+ and produces binary output, where text output is expected,
  breaking applications that parse that.

  [Test Case]

   * OPENSSL_ENABLE_MD5_VERIFY=1 openssl ca -config test.openssl.cnf
  -passin stdin -batch -spkac input_file -startdate 190121130654Z

   Currently produces binary goop.

   Should produce PEM format Base64 encoded certificate data in a block 
surrounded
   with BEGIN/END certificate.

  [Regression Potential]

   * This is a regression in cosmic and up, and impeding regression in
  bionic with the upcoming 1.1.1 SRU. A bugfix exists upstream.
