I'm working on adding an ARI client to a certificate monitoring service
to notify users when one of their certificates is scheduled to be
revoked.  Unfortunately, ARI doesn't currently convey whether the
suggestedWindow is mandatory (because the certificate is going to be
revoked) or merely advisory.

I had previously thought that an end time that was earlier than the
certificate's expiration would indicate an upcoming revocation, but it
appears that Let's Encrypt's ARI endpoint routinely specifies an end
time that is ~30 days earlier than the certificate's expiration.

I propose that the renewalInfo object contain a nullable field called
revocationTime which specifies the time the certificate is going to be
revoked, if applicable.

Regards,
Andrew
