ncp11: Namecoin TLS Certificate Trust PKCS#11 Module

Build Instructions

1. Install Go.
2. Clone this repo.
3. Configure Go Modules to use the latest experimental Namecoin branches of pkcs11mod and pkcs11 (these will be submitted upstream later).
4. CGO_ENABLED=1 go build -buildmode c-shared -o libncp11.so
   1. If building for Windows or macOS, change the output filename to ncp11.dll or libncp11.dylib.

Installation Instructions

1. Build ncp11 from source (see above) or download binaries from Namecoin.org.
2. Install Encaya and make sure that it's running. (You'll probably want to set it to launch automatically on boot.)
