EJBCA 3.7.0 released

[Tomas Gustavsson]

We are very proud to release this first version of EJBCA with EU EAC
ePassport support. This means support for CVC certificates, which are
very different from X.509 certificates.

This is a major release, particularly focusing on support for CVC
certificates as used in EU EAC ePassport PKI.
Read the changelog for details.

Notable changes in no specific order:
- Support for CV Certificates (CVC) for EU EAC ePassports, you can now
build a CVC PKI for EU ePassport using EJBCA.
- Upgrade of jaxb jars using for Webservice API, and new WS-API calls.
- Support for error codes in Exceptions from Webservice API.
- New service to automatically renew expiring CAs.
- Possible to use IAIK PKCS#11 provider as well as Sun PKCS#11.
- Client Tool box with client CLI tools easy to deploy stand-alone on
other machines.
- Minor fixes and enhancements.
