An experimental patch to add '--cert' option along with other related ones to 'client rpm' command of rhui-manager, to generate cert also before building clint config rpm

Description of problem:
To build client config rpms, users have to do a pair of steps with rhui-manager client commands:

1. generate client entitlement cert (rhui-manager client cert)
2. build client config rpm (rhui-manager client rpm)

And typical cases, these steps are performed sequentially and
no reasons to split the job into these two steps frankly, IMHO.

I made an experimental patch to perform these two steps at once
with 'client rpm' command of rhui-manager optionally.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHUI 3.0 Beta.2

How reproducible: Always

Additional info:
