Description
When installing the local CA into the system using `mkcert -install` all entities for which it is installed are reported:
```
The local CA is now installed in the system trust store! ⚡️
The local CA is now installed in the Firefox trust store (requires browser restart)! 🦊
The local CA is now installed in Java's trust store! ☕️
```
When uninstalling the local CA from the system using `mkcert -uninstall` the output is only
```
The local CA is now uninstalled from the system trust store(s)! 👋
```
It would be better if the output of `-uninstall` lists all entities it uninstalls the local CA from like `-install` does. Otherwise, the output casts doubt if it has really been removed from the Java trust store and the browser trust stores.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the command handlers for `mkcert -install` and `mkcert -uninstall`, then compare how each reports trust-store changes. Done means the uninstall output identifies every trust store from which the local CA was removed, including browser and Java stores when applicable.
