[webrtc-pc] Alternative storage for RTCCertificates needed (#2944)

steely-glint has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/webrtc-pc:

== Alternative storage for RTCCertificates needed ==
> This option allows applications to establish key continuity. An [RTCCertificate](https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-pc/#dom-rtccertificate) can be persisted in [[INDEXEDDB](https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-pc/#bib-indexeddb)] and reused. Persistence and reuse also avoids the cost of key generation.

Due to fingerprinting concerns the lifespan of IndexedDb may be significantly shorter than the certificate expiry. (Safari: 1 week vs 1 year). It would be useful to have an alternative way to persist RTCCertificates that at least matched the expiry.
