Rewrote SSLCA as Cfg handler.
This adds encryption support to SSL key creation (much like SSH private keys), and the ability to generate keys and certs that are specific to groups, instead of just to hosts. It also moves the SSLCA data (the XML files describing keys and certs as well as the keys and certs themselves) into the Cfg tree, rather than off in their own separate place. tools/upgrade/1.4/migrate_sslca.py can be used to migrate to the new format. This also adds XMLCfgCreator, a CfgCreator that makes it easier to create data based on XML descriptions of it (which is exactly what the SSH key and SSL CA creators do), including built-in support for host- and group-specific data, encryption, and so on.
