Add this repository to the GSA code inventory

[jfredrickson5]

(I work in GSA IT, Office of the CTO. I am submitting this as part of our work to ensure GSA complies with the new Federal Source Code Policy.)

GSA needs to create an inventory of all agency source code, whether open source or closed source. The inventory we create will appear on Code.gov. The inventory will contain basic information about each source code repository, but will not include the source code itself. Please read the implementation guide and use it to submit this repository to the inventory by December 5.

Basically, please do one of the following, the details of which are described in the implementation guide:

• Add a metadata file (.codeinventory.yml or .codeinventory.json) to this repository (optionally, use this tool to generate a metadata file)
• Submit your metadata via a form (only do this if you cannot add a metadata file to this repository)

Let me know if you would like me to open a PR with an example .codeinventory.yml file.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks!

There are very few examples in the wild of PIV processing code. For example the "content signing" OID used in the CHUID signing cert essentially never appears on the public internet. One might assume someone has actually coded some of this PIV stuff in the past within the government ;-) I hope a code inventory helps future implementors identify when they can go look at existing samples to support implementing the use of this technology.
