Details

(Whiteboard: [certdb]) 

Currently, we store the S/MIME profile time as UTCTime DER.
The time originally comes from S/MIME signatures.
Those times can be either UTCTime or GeneralizedTime encoded.

Currently, the profile fails to update if the S/MIME signature is
GeneralizedTime encoded.

We should fix the time format in the next rev of the database to be a decoded
PRTime instead. This would allow storing the profile time regardless of the
original encoding format in the signature.
