Description
As part of signing PE objects for booting UEFI payloads with secureboot, we (@RaitoBezarius and I) would need to add a PKCS#7 signature to PE objects.
This comes along with the efforts @RaitoBezarius already submitted in #354 and the request for authenticode support in #355.
@m4b I'd love for your opinion on that, and input on where to direct efforts.
Should we target https://github.com/m4b/faerie for write support, or should put PE write support in goblin?

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing issues #354 and #355 and the existing PE support in goblin, then compare the proposed write support with faerie. Done requires a maintainer decision on the target project and a defined approach for adding PKCS#7 signatures to PE objects for UEFI secure boot.
