Turn off Secure Email Trust Bit for certSIGN ROOT CA cert

RESOLVED FIXED certSIGN
AI Summary

certSIGN requested the removal of the 'Secure Email' Trust Bit from their ROOT CA certificate due to its lack of use and the upcoming expiration of the certificate. This change is part of certSIGN's compliance with Mozilla's root lifecycle proposal and aims to address issues identified in a CCADB report regarding missing S/MIME BR audits. The removal is not expected to impact Mozilla users, and there is no urgency for the change.
