Hi,

gentle ping. Please let me know if there are any issues with the patches.

Thanks!

The pre-load entry type signs with Cryptodome, which has no PKCS#11
support, so the private key must be a file. Keys held in an HSM or on a
smart card cannot be used.

Add an optional 'engine' property. When set, binman signs by running
openssl with that engine and takes 'key-name' as the engine-specific key
identifier.

Tested with SoftHSM via the new tests (both paddings) and with an RSA-2048
key on a YubiKey PIV slot. The tests are skipped when softhsm2-util or the
pkcs11 engine is unavailable.
