Certificates should be returned. Specify null
to return all Certificates (if supported).

Remarks
Returns a Collection of Certificates that match the specified selector. If no Certificates match the selector, an empty Collection will be returned.
For some CertStore types, the resulting Collection may not contain <b>all</b> of the Certificates that match the selector. For instance, an LDAP CertStore may not search all entries in the directory. Instead, it may just search entries that are likely to contain the Certificates it is looking for.
Some CertStore implementations (especially LDAP CertStores) may throw a CertStoreException unless a non-null CertSelector is provided that includes specific criteria that can be used to find the certificates. Issuer and/or subject names are especially useful criteria.
