(VB.NET UWP/WinRT) Sign and Encrypt using Cert to produce -----BEGIN PKCS7----- ... -----END PKCS7-----

Demonstrates how to first sign content using your own cert + private key to produce PKCS7 binary output. Then encrypt the signed binary output using the recipient's public key to produce output such as:

-----BEGIN PKCS7-----
MIIHPwYJKoZIhvcNAQcEoIIHMDCCBywC ...
...
...
-----END PKCS7-----
