       An X.509 certificate is a structured grouping of information about an individual, a device, or anything
       one can imagine.  An X.509 CRL (certificate revocation list) is a tool to help determine if a certificate
       is still valid.  The exact definition of those can be found in the X.509 document from ITU-T, or in
       RFC3280 from PKIX.  In OpenSSL, the type X509 is used to express such a certificate, and the type
       X509_CRL is used to express a CRL.

       A related structure is a certificate request, defined in PKCS#10 from RSA Security, Inc, also reflected
       in RFC2896.  In OpenSSL, the type X509_REQ is used to express such a certificate request.

       To handle some complex parts of a certificate, there are the types X509_NAME (to express a certificate
       name), X509_ATTRIBUTE (to express a certificate attribute), X509_EXTENSION (to express a certificate
       extension) and a few more.

       Finally, there's the supertype X509_INFO, which can contain a CRL, a certificate and a corresponding
       private key.

       X509_XXX, d2i_X509_XXX, and i2d_X509_XXX functions handle X.509 certificates, with some exceptions, shown
       below.

       X509_CRL_XXX, d2i_X509_CRL_XXX, and i2d_X509_CRL_XXX functions handle X.509 CRLs.

       X509_REQ_XXX, d2i_X509_REQ_XXX, and i2d_X509_REQ_XXX functions handle PKCS#10 certificate requests.

       X509_NAME_XXX functions handle certificate names.

       X509_ATTRIBUTE_XXX functions handle certificate attributes.

       X509_EXTENSION_XXX functions handle certificate extensions.
