Decide on default between `otp` and `plain` records #3

Closed voltone closed 6 years ago

voltone commented 6 years ago

For instance, the X509.Certificate module's primary type is the :Certificate record, but perhaps it would be better to default to :OTPCertificate. This needs to be decided and implemented across all modules where an OTP record variant exists.

X509.Certificate now returns :OTPCertificate records by default in v0.2.0, for better interworking with Erlang/OTP's :public_key module. For other records types the OTP variant is not used consistently in the :public_key APIs, or the record might be defined but not used at all. So no changes are needed for other modules at this time.
