(CkPython) Create JWK Set Containing Certificates

Demonstrates how to create a JWK Set containing N certificates.

# This example creates the following JWK Set from two certificates:

# {
#   "keys": [
#     {
#       "kty": "RSA",
#       "use": "sig",
#       "kid": "BB8CeFVqyaGrGNuehJIiL4dfjzw",
#       "x5t": "BB8CeFVqyaGrGNuehJIiL4dfjzw",
#       "n": "nYf1jpn7cFdQ...9Iw",
#       "e": "AQAB",
#       "x5c": [
#         "MIIDBTCCAe2...Z+NTZo"
#       ]
#     },
#     {
#       "kty": "RSA",
#       "use": "sig",
#       "kid": "M6pX7RHoraLsprfJeRCjSxuURhc",
#       "x5t": "M6pX7RHoraLsprfJeRCjSxuURhc",
#       "n": "xHScZMPo8F...EO4QQ",
#       "e": "AQAB",
#       "x5c": [
#         "MIIC8TCCAdmgA...Vt5432GA=="
#       ]
#     }
#   ]
# }

# First get two certificates from files.
