(PowerShell) Load Java KeyStore and Access Contents

Loads a Java keystore file and iterates over the contents. A Java keystore (.jks) file can contain one or more trusted root certificate entries and/or one or more private key entries. Each private key entry includes an associated certificate chain.

# For each private key entry, get the private key and
# the associated certificate chain.
# Each private key is password protected.  Usually it is the same
# password as used for the keyed digest of the entire JKS.  
# However, this does not have to be.  The password is passed
# here to handle the possibility of each private key requiring
# a different password.
