Let the user, upon installation, set the certificate subject base for

The selfsign plugin does not currently support this dynamic name
re-assignment and will reject any incoming requests that don't conform
to the subject base.

The certificate subject base is stored in cn=ipaconfig but it does NOT
dynamically update the configuration, for dogtag at least. The file
/var/lib/pki-ca/profiles/ca/caIPAserviceCert.cfg would need to be
updated and pki-cad restarted.

For example:
# ipa-server-install --ca --subject="O=Example"

If the installed CA is dogtag then the following will happen:

1. request for CN=test.example.com will issue CN=test.example.com,
O=Example
2. request for CN=test.example.com, O=Test will issue
CN=test.example.com, O=Example
3. request for CN=test.example.com, O=Example will issue
CN=test.example.com, O=Example

If the installed CA is selfsign then the following will happen:

1. request for CN=test.example.com will be rejected
2. request for CN=test.example.com, O=Test will be rejected
3. request for CN=test.example.com, O=Example will issue
CN=test.example.com, O=Example
