Hi Chao Zhang,

Although casting also silences the warning, why not declare
CertCommonName as CHAR8 directly? The only signedness check happens
in X509GetCommonName(). Sha256Update() requests "VOID *" so the
signedness doesn't matter. Besides, AsciiStrLen() also requests
CHAR8, so declaring CertCommonName as CHAR8 can remove the casting
altogether. What do you think?
