+ * `nish/crypto/x509` — DER, PEM and the X.509 certificates a WebTransport or
+ * TLS server holds: read a P-256 private key and a certificate chain out of
+ * PEM, and mint the short-lived self-signed ECDSA P-256 certificate a browser
+ * pins by its SHA-256.
+ *
+ *     import { x509MintSelfSigned, x509CertificateHash, derToPem } from "nish/crypto/x509";
+ *
+ *     const serial: u8[] = new Array<u8>(16);
+ *     crypto.getRandomValues(serial);
+ *     serial[0] = serial[0] & toU8(0x7f);   // positive, so it stays 16 octets
+ *     const der: u8[] | null = x509MintSelfSigned(priv, "localhost", toI64(Date.now()), 14, serial);
+ *     // x509CertificateHash(der) is what serverCertificateHashes names;
+ *     // derToPem(der, "CERTIFICATE") is the file a TLS stack loads.
+ *
+ * Written for this module from ITU-T X.690 (DER), RFC 5280 (the certificate
+ * profile), RFC 7468 (PEM's textual encoding), RFC 5915 and RFC 5208/5958 (the
+ * SEC1 and PKCS#8 private-key structures), RFC 5480 (the P-256 key's
+ * identifiers) and RFC 5758 (ecdsa-with-SHA256).
+ *
+ * **DER is read strictly.** X.690 §10 leaves one encoding per value, and a
+ * reader that accepts a second spelling gives a certificate two identities
+ * while its hash — which is what a browser pins — names only one. So a length
+ * must be definite and minimal (no `0x80`, no long form below 128, no leading
+ * zero length octet), an INTEGER must be minimal in two's complement, a tag
+ * must fit in one octet, every element must end inside its parent, and a
+ * certificate must end where its outer SEQUENCE does. Anything else answers
+ * `null`, never a panic. The reader looks at what this module uses — the
+ * version, serial, algorithms, names as opaque bytes, validity, the subject
+ * public key and the signature — and checks the order of what follows the key
+ * (`[1]`, `[2]`, `[3]`) without parsing extensions.
+ *
+ * **PEM is RFC 7468's strict grammar**, with standard base64 (`+` and `/`,
+ * padded with `=`), not `base64url`: 64 characters a line and a shorter last
+ * one, a `-----END` label equal to its `-----BEGIN`, no headers (so an
+ * RFC 1421 encrypted key is refused), and canonical base64 whose unused low
+ * bits are zero. Text between blocks is ignored, as RFC 7468 §5.2 allows, and
+ * so are blocks with another label; a line may end in CRLF.
+ *
+ * **The minted certificate** is what the WebTransport specification's
+ * `serverCertificateHashes` accepts (W3C WebTransport, "custom certificate
+ * requirements"): X.509 v3, an ECDSA P-256 key signed with ecdsa-with-SHA256,
+ * and a validity period of at most fourteen days — `notAfter - notBefore`,
+ * which is what Chromium compares, so `days` is 1 to 14. Subject and issuer
+ * are the same single common name, as a UTF8String. It carries **no
+ * extensions**: the specification requires none, a browser checking a pinned
+ * hash does no path building for basicConstraints or keyUsage to inform, and
+ * every extension would be one more field whose absence is part of the
+ * contract a hash pins. OpenSSL verifies it as its own trust anchor all the
+ * same (`tests/link/crypto_x509`'s header has the commands). The serial and
+ * the time are parameters so the golden certificate is deterministic; a caller
+ * passes `Date.now()` and random bytes.
+ *
+ * **Constant time.** A private key is the one secret that passes through here:
+ * it is base64-decoded from PEM, lifted out of its DER, and handed to
+ * `nish/crypto/p256`. Base64 maps a character to its sextet and back by
+ * arithmetic on range masks, as `nish/crypto/base64url` does, and folds a bad
+ * character into one word read after the whole text, so neither a branch nor a
+ * table index depends on the key's bytes. PEM's framing is found by comparing
+ * the start of each line with the fixed `-----BEGIN ` and `-----END `, which no
+ * base64 character matches, so those comparisons end on a line's first byte
+ * whatever the key is. The DER reader branches on tags and
+ * lengths, which are the key's public framing, and copies its 32 octets with a
+ * fixed loop. Signing is `p256SignSha256`, and checking a key against the
+ * public key stored beside it compares public values. None of this is under
+ * the disassembly check; it is discipline.
+ *
+ * Private names carry the `x509` prefix because a `std/` module's private
+ * functions share the importing program's flat symbol namespace
+ * (`docs/wp26-stdlib.md` §3e).
