Description

In my setup, the SSH keys alone are not sufficient for authentication, if not accompanied with a [SSH certficate](https://man.openbsd.org/ssh-keygen.1#CERTIFICATES). With OpenSSH, certificates are automatically loaded into the ssh-agent after calling `ssh-add`, that means there are two entries in the agent listing:

$ ssh-add -l
2048 SHA256:sARrpIfvcA+WXiGe209WuUiqOB7zyA7zdxmHGjfqiYU oskar@oskarpc.cesnet.cz (RSA)
2048 SHA256:sARrpIfvcA+WXiGe209WuUiqOB7zyA7zdxmHGjfqiYU oskar@oskarpc.cesnet.cz (RSA-CERT)

It would be nice if loading of SSH certificates was supported by this Chrome app as well.
