Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * openssl command line utility option parsing has regressed in
  1.1.0i+ and produces binary output, where text output is expected,
  breaking applications that parse that.

  [Test Case]

   * OPENSSL_ENABLE_MD5_VERIFY=1 openssl ca -config test.openssl.cnf
  -passin stdin -batch -spkac input_file -startdate 190121130654Z

   Currently produces binary goop.

   Should produce PEM format Base64 encoded certificate data in a block surrounded
   with BEGIN/END certificate.

  [Regression Potential]

   * This is a regression in cosmic and up, and impeding regression in
  bionic with the upcoming 1.1.1 SRU. A bugfix exists upstream.
