Ian Wienand a44f5acdf3 letsencrypt: force renewal on certificate change
There is a bug, or misfeature, in acme.sh using dns manual mode where
it will not renew the certificate when new domains are added to an
existing certificate.  It appears to generate the TXT record requests
correctly, but then when we renew the certificate it thinks it is not
time and skips it.  This is filed upstream with [1] however we can
work around it, and generally be better anyway.

For each letsencrypt host, during certificate request we build up the
"acme_txt_required" key which is a list of TXT record tuples.
Currently we keep the challenge domain in the first entry, which is
not useful (all our hosts have the same challenge domain,
amce.opendev.org).  Modify this to be the certificate key from the
host config.  To be clear; when a host has

letsencrypt_certs:
  hostname-cert-main:
    hostname.opendev.org
    altname.opendev.org
  hostname-cert-secondary:
    secondary.opendev.org
    secondaryalt.opendev.org

acme_txt_required when renewing all certs will end up looking like:

 [
  (hostname-cert-main, <txt1>), (hostname-cert-main, <txt2>),
  (hostname-cert-secondary, <txt3>), (hostname-cert-secondary, <txt3>>)
 ]

In the certificate creation path, we walk "acme_txt_required" and take
the unique 0-value entries; this gives us the list of keys in
"letsencrypt_certs" which were actually updated.

We can then force renewal for these certs, because we know they
changed in some way that requires reissuing them (within renewal time,
or new domains).

This isn't just a work-around, it is generically better too.
Previously if any cert on host required an update, we would try to
update them all.  This would be a no-op; acme.sh would just skip doing
anything; but now we don't even have to call into the renewal if we
know nothing has changed.
