Description

WICG/webpackage#121 will change the SXG signed message to include the OCSP response attached to the cert-chain+cbor. This means that:

1. Every ~3.5 days, the cert-url will change, to reflect the different OCSP response attached. (Or else old SXGs won't validate any more.)
2. When signing a document, the packager must request the freshest cert-url from the certcache.

Research direction

Start by reading the linked WICG/webpackage#121 change and tracing the packager's document-signing flow and certcache handling. Confirm where the freshest cert-url is obtained and how the OCSP response is included, then verify that newly signed SXGs continue to validate as the response changes.
