decode Reads Autocrypt-encoded certificates
Given an autocrypt header (or an key-gossip header), this command extracts the certificate encoded
within it.
The converse operation is "sq autocrypt encode-sender".
encode-sender
Encodes a certificate into an Autocrypt header
A certificate can be encoded and included in a header of an email message. This command encodes
the certificate, adds the senders email address (which must match the one used in the "From"
header), and the senders "prefer-encrypt" state (see the Autocrypt spec for more information).
The converse operation is "sq autocrypt decode".
