//  We're going to send a POST to the following URL:

//  POST https://VAULT_NAME.vault.azure.net/keys/CERT_NAME/CERT_VERSION/sign?api-version=7.4
//  
//  {

//  }

//  The alg can be one of the following
//  ES256  ECDSA using P-256 and SHA-256
//  ES256K ECDSA using P-256K and SHA-256
//  ES384  ECDSA using P-384 and SHA-384
//  ES512  ECDSA using P-521 and SHA-512
//  PS256  RSASSA-PSS using SHA-256 and MGF1 with SHA-256
//  PS384  RSASSA-PSS using SHA-384 and MGF1 with SHA-384
//  PS512  RSASSA-PSS using SHA-512 and MGF1 with SHA-512
//  RS256  RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 using SHA-256
//  RS384  RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 using SHA-384
//  RS512  RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 using SHA-512

//  The sample POST above uses SHA512.  We'll instead sign a SHA256 hash..
