Description: `**step certificate format** prints the certificate or CSR in a different format.

Only 2 formats are currently supported; PEM and ASN.1 DER. This tool will convert
a certificate or CSR in one format to the other.
If either PEM or ASN.1 DER is provided as a positional argument, this command
will convert a certificate or CSR in one format to the other.

If PFX / PKCS12 file is provided as a positional argument, and the format is
specified as "pem"/"der", this command extracts a certificate and private key
from the input.

If either PEM or ASN.1 DER is provided in "--crt" | "--key" | "--ca", and the
format is specified as "p12", this command creates a PFX / PKCS12 file from the input .

## POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

<crt-file>
: Path to a certificate or CSR file.
: Path to a certificate, CSR, or .p12 file.
<crt-file>

## EXIT CODES

It looks like if the flag --format is not passed it will write PEM files, as it should be. We should show this in one of these two examples, explaining that is the default behavior.


Convert a certificate and private key to a .p12 file:

'''
$ step certificate format foo.crt --crt foo.p12 --key foo.key --format p12
'''

Convert a certificate, a private key, and intermediate certificates(s) to a .p12 file:

'''
$ step certificate format foo.crt --crt foo.p12 --key foo.key \
--ca intermediate-1.crt --ca intermediate-2 --format p12
