Subject: [PATCH] Remove "Request Certificate with SubjectAltName" permission

subjectAltName is required or relevant in most certificate use cases
(esp. TLS, where carrying DNS name in Subject DN CN attribute is
deprecated).  Therefore it does not really make sense to have a
special permission for this, over and above "request certificate"
permission.

Furthermore, we already do rigorously validate SAN contents again
the subject principal, and the permission is waived for self-service
requests or if the operator is a host principal.

So remove the permission, the associated virtual operation, and the
associated code in cert_request.
