------------------------------+----------------------
 The cert-spec.txt [https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/cert-
 spec.txt#n93 document references various Certificate types] in a section
 4.2, but there exists no such complete documentation in any of the
 -spec.txt files.

 The section 4.2 that it appears to reference
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/proposals/220-ecc-id-
 keys.txt#n438 is in prop 220] which includes specs for each of the cert
 types mentioned:
  * Link key certificate certified by Ed25519 signing key
  * Ed25519 TLS authentication key certified by Ed25519 signing key
  * RSA cross-certificate for Ed25519 identity key
