Azure Key Vault Sign with a Certificate's Private Key

Signs a hash using the private key of a certificate previously imported to an Azure Key Vault. Perl

# This requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

# See Azure Key Vault Get Certificates for a more detailed explanation
# for how Chilkat is automatically getting the OAuth2 access token for your application.

# Provide information needed for Chilkat to automatically get an OAuth2 access token as needed.
$json = chilkat::CkJsonObject->new();

# In this example, we'll sign the SHA256 hash of the string "This is a test"

# We're going to send a POST to the following URL:
# POST {vaultBaseUrl}/keys/{key-or-cert-name}/{key-or-cert-version}/sign?api-version=7.4

# For example:

# POST https://VAULT_NAME.vault.azure.net/keys/CERT_NAME/CERT_VERSION/sign?api-version=7.4
# 
# {
#   "alg": "RS512",
#   "value": "RUE3Nzg4NTQ4QjQ5RjFFN0U2NzAyQzhDNEMwMkJDOTA1MTYyOTUzNjI5NDhBNzZDQTlFOTM1NDA2M0ZGMjk2Mg"
# }

# 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..
