[Bug 1200581] [NEW] exim-gencert creates 1024 bit key

Public bug reported:

The script for creating a default key for STARTTLS creates a 1024 bit
key.  This should probably be updated to 2048 as a default key length.

$ grep 1024 /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/examples/exim-gencert 
default_bits = 1024
openssl req -config $SSLEAY -x509 -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout $KEY -out $CERT -days $DAYS -nodes
