CRED-10342

Separate service task for certificate Windows Cert Store publication

Introduced a separate service task to publish certificates to Windows certificate Store via Smart ID Desktop App. Windows Cert Store feature was introduced already with the 20.11.0 release but needed to be configured via the virtual smart card (VSC) service task. Configuration via the new dedicated service task is more convenient.

For more information, see: Standard service tasks in Identity Manager: under Personal Messaging: Create Key on Windows Cert Store and Personal Messaging: Install Cert on Windows Cert Store.
