Description

These are the scenarios that need negative integration tests:
1. Loading gossip certificate that is malformed.
2. Roster contains malformed cert (this may be very hard to test).

These should be tested using a container otter test.

Prereqs:
complete cryptostatic refactoring to seperate Hedera app concepts from key management

Research direction

Start by checking prerequisite issue #15825 and the existing container otter integration-test entry points; no source file is named here. Cover malformed loaded gossip certificates and investigate whether a roster containing a malformed certificate can be exercised. Done means negative integration coverage exists for the feasible scenarios and passes in the container otter test environment.
