mutual-tls: Add support for Meta certificates

Meta Inc's client certificates use an internal Subject CN format
which AFAIK is specific to Meta and don't adhere to a known standard:

Subject: CN = <type>:<entity>/<hostname>

Commit adds the `mutual-tls-common-name-parsing=meta` option to, on
Meta builds, parse the Subject CN field and map either the <entity>
to a local user.

The <type> field determines what kind of client identity the cert
represents. Only type="user" is supported for now with <entity> being
the unixname of a Meta employee. For example, the Subject CN string
below maps to a local BMC user named "kawmarco":

Subject CN = "user:kawmarco/dev123.facebook.com"

Tested: Unit tests, built and tested on romulus using the script below:
https://gist.github.com/kawmarco/87170a8250020023d913ed5f7ed5c01f

Flags used in meta-ibm/meta-romulus/conf/layer.conf :
```
-Dbmcweb-logging='enabled'
-Dmutual-tls-common-name-parsing='meta'
```
