/**
* 2. The CERT Resource Record
*
* The CERT resource record (RR) has the structure given below. Its RR
* type code is 37.
*
* 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3 3
* 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
* +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
* | type | key tag |
* +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
* | algorithm | /
* +---------------+ certificate or CRL /
* / /
* +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-|
*
* The type field is the certificate type as define in section 2.1
* below.
*
* The algorithm field has the same meaning as the algorithm field in
* KEY and SIG RRs [RFC 2535] except that a zero algorithm field
* indicates the algorithm is unknown to a secure DNS, which may simply
* be the result of the algorithm not having been standardized for
* secure DNS.
*
* The key tag field is the 16 bit value computed for the key embedded
* in the certificate as specified in the DNSSEC Standard [RFC 2535].
* This field is used as an efficiency measure to pick which CERT RRs
* may be applicable to a particular key. The key tag can be calculated
* for the key in question and then only CERT RRs with the same key tag
* need be examined. However, the key must always be transformed to the
* format it would have as the public key portion of a KEY RR before the
* key tag is computed. This is only possible if the key is applicable
* to an algorithm (and limits such as key size limits) defined for DNS
* security. If it is not, the algorithm field MUST BE zero and the tag
* field is meaningless and SHOULD BE zero.
