Good question. I did some testing and here's what I found:
keytool would fail if we pass "-ext" without a name.
`keytool -genkey -alias "keystorename" -keystore "keystorename" -storepass
"secret" -keypass "secret" -ext`
> Command option -ext needs an argument.
However, we won't ever append "-ext" without also appending a name too.
Currently the only way to append "-ext" is when useExtension is true, which
only happens if the sname attribute is included in the definition AND the java
version is 1.7 or higher.
keytool works fine if the saname attribute is not included in the
definition. "useExtension" would be false (because "setSaname" would never get
called) and it'd skip over the code block beginning on line 432.
However, keytool throws an exception if saname="" is used in the definition
`[genkey] keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Illegal item in san=`
This definition of the task doesn't meet the requirements specified by
keytool. Should ant handle this differently or defer to keytool for handing the
invalid use? It doesn't look like we are doing any special validation on the
other arguments (e.g. "sigalg" which is just a string in this Task but keytool
only accepts certain values for that string).
