Make certificate vending a selectable, config-driven backend instead of
hardcoding it to the credential store's Vault client. This decouples PKI
issuance from credential storage and lays the seam for future non-Vault
(e.g. k8s/local-CA) backends.
- Introduce CertBackend { SharedVault | DedicatedVault } + factory
create_certificate_provider. SharedVault (the default) reuses the
credential Vault client, so existing deployments are unchanged.
- DedicatedVault is safe-by-construction: required non-Option address /
pki_mount_location / pki_role_name, no VAULT_* env fallback, and an
empty-string guard, so a partial config fails fast at startup instead
of silently re-pointing at the credential Vault.
- Add a [certificates] TOML section on CarbideConfig with a validating
conversion; selecting dedicated_vault without its settings errors.
- Resolve SPIFFE identity once from the site config and share it across
backends so certs mint under the same identity namespace.
Tests: config parse/convert (shared, dedicated, missing-section,
missing-field, unknown-field) and empty-required-field rejection.
