Remove certificates from / require deployment of certs for all Egeria source projects

[planetf1]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Please describe the new behavior that that will improve Egeria

All certificates will be removed from the Egeria source code projects.

Instead users of egeria (both developer and operational) will be required to deploy certificates

For example,

• a developer may need to take a step to create and point to certificates when runnning IntelliJ
• Automated tests may need to add a step to generate certs for testing as part of a ci/cd pipeline
• The helm charts will need to generate certificates using k8s cert-manager, or may require certificates to be available prior to deployment.

This issue will track this high level requirement, with a targetted completion by the time release 4.x ships

Since this issue was raised, the cdertificates are no longer embedded in Egeria's jar files. They are separate files that can be easility updated and replaced. This is all of the changed that are currently planned.
