Revocation checking based on certificate revocation lists (CRLs) is done by checking a validated CRL for an end-entity certificate's serial number. In preparation for implementing this we must retain certificate serial numbers when parsing, instead of discarding after reading.
We don't attempt to decode the raw serial number as a big integer since for the purpose of revocation checking we can match the ASN.1 encoded form without further processing.
Trust anchors will not be checked for revocation using CRLs so we do not augment the
TrustAnchor
representation and instead continue to discard the serial number when parsing TAs.Relates to #56
