Description

When specifying custom server certificates, the following options can be used:

    --foreman-server-ssl-ca /path/to/cacert.crt \
    --foreman-server-ssl-chain /path/to/cacert.crt \
    --foreman-server-ssl-cert /path/to/foreman.example.com.crt \
    --foreman-server-ssl-key /path/to/foreman.example.com.key \
    --foreman-server-ssl-crl "" \
    --foreman-websockets-ssl-cert /path/to/foreman.example.com.crt \
    --foreman-websockets-ssl-key /path/to/foreman.example.com.key \

In practice you almost always want the websockets cert + key to match the server cert + key. It would be easier for the user if this didn't need to be specified.

Fixes #29892 - Use server certs for websockets

Prior to this the user needed to specify the certs both for the server
and websockets. In practice these are pretty much always the same files.
By using undef + pick() the option to specify these is maintained, but
the defaults are better.
