I'd like to see if there's any objection to moving two optional methods
from 6962-bis to the monitoring API draft:
* get-entry-for-sct
<https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-trans-rfc6962-bis-20#section-7.1>
* get-entry-for-tbscertificate
<https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-trans-rfc6962-bis-20#section-7.2>

These were added at a late stage by Ben, are not essential to the protocol
and would be very suitable for a monitor.

It is possible for logs to implement these methods under the same namespace
of the log (so in effect it would behave exactly as if they were defined in
6962-bis):

   - Add an optional parameter for specifying the Log ID requests refers to
   was added.
   - Logs that implement these methods would not require the Log ID
   parameter and would simply reply with data from their tree.
   - Monitors that implement these methods would require the Log ID
   parameter and would reply with data from multiple logs (output is keyed by
   Log ID).

The same thing can be applied to the proposed get-sths method which, as
decided, would live in a monitoring API document, so the three methods form
the base of the monitoring API draft.

PR for removing the methods:
