Add a *final* layer of granularity to X509 Distinguished Name. Only used if --req-serial="<PRINTABLE>user data" is specified. To minimize the noise to the user by this new field, change the way that OpenSSL is called to build a CA: Always use '-batch' mode. User visible change when building a CA: * Instead of being prompted for each individual DN field, now the user is presented with a read-out of how the fields are currently set. There is now only a single confirmation that all fields are correct. * If '--req-serial' is not used then 'serialNumber' is not displayed.
