[PATCH 1/6] binman: openssl: refactor creation of Distinguished Name section from dict

Instead of manually expanding the req_dist_name_dict, create a helper
function for creating a config section from any dict. That will also
automatically allow other fields to be emitted.
Eventually, we could allow the values to not necesssarily be a single
string, but a list of strings, e.g. "OU" -> ["First OU", "Secound OU"],
and encode that in the config file using
1.OU = First OU
2.OU = Second OU
as documented in 'man 5 config'.
