(Unicode C) Convert Java KeyStore to PKCS12 / PFX

Loads a Java keystore file and saves it as a PKCS12 / PFX. A Java keystore (JKS) can contain two types of entries: (1) trusted root certificates or (2) private keys + cert chains. Usually a JKS will contain all entries of one type or another (and thus a particular JKS serves one purpose or another; meaning that a JKS containing trusted roots is used as a source for verifying pre-trusted roots, and a JKS containing private keys (and cert chains) is used as a secure, encrypted store for private keys).

A PKCS12 / PFX typically contains one or more private keys, along with each private key's certificate chain. Therefore, it typically makes sense to only write the private key entries to a PKCS12 (and the associated certificate chains). If a JKS contains trusted root certificates, it makes more sense to conver it to a PEM file (such as the CA cert bundle in PEM format from mozilla.org).
