Though the usage is currently undocumented. The 'req' and 'ca' commands take a
-sigopt command line option which sets signing options in a way similar to the
documented pkeyutil utility. So to generate the requests and certificates you
just set the padding mode to PSS and the salt length if you wish.

PSS signatures should be verified automatically.
