Hi Rodrigo,

I pushed some (untested) changes to the ed448-certs branch.  The first
one adds support to parse Ed448 public keys to the pkcs1 plugin (as used
by the x509 plugin, the openssl plugin is still required to parse the
actual key).  The second patch adds support for Ed25519/448 keys when
certificates are parsed via openssl plugin (both the x509 and pkcs1
plugins are then theoretically not required).  Finally, the last two
commits add support to create Ed448 keys/certificates with pki and parse
PEM-encoded Ed448 keys (if the key type is explicitly passed via pki,
which should not be necessary).
Let me know if those changes work for you.

Regards,
Tobias
