PKI: Add support for signature_bits param to the intermediate/generate api (#17388)
* PKI: Add support for signature_bits param to the intermediate/generate api

 - Mainly to work properly with GCP backed managed keys, we need to
   issue signatures that would match the GCP key algorithm.
 - At this time due to https://github.com/golang/go/issues/45990 we
   can't issue PSS signed CSRs, as the libraries in Go always request
   a PKCS1v15.
 - Add an extra check in intermediate/generate that validates the CSR's
   signature before providing it back to the client in case we generated
   a bad signature such as if an end-user used a GCP backed managed key
   with a RSA PSS algorithm.
   - GCP ignores the requested signature type and always signs with the
     key's algorithm which can lead to a CSR that says it is signed with
     a PKCS1v15 algorithm but is actually a RSA PSS signature
