Re: removing keygen from HTML

I dont know that "remove keygen from HTML." but instead delegate to
hardware if present.

Currently our approach is

1) If secure hardware is present, responsibility is delegated to the
hardware to generate the key
2) If hardware not present, do the old way and let the software create
and manage the key
