Remarks
Returns an Intent that can be used for credential installation. The intent may be used without any extras, in which case the user will be able to install credentials from their own source.
Alternatively, #EXTRA_CERTIFICATE or #EXTRA_PKCS12 maybe used to specify the bytes of an X.509 certificate or a PKCS#12 key store for installation. These extras may be combined with #EXTRA_NAME to provide a default alias name for credentials being installed.
When used with Activity#startActivityForResult, Activity#RESULT_OK will be returned if a credential was successfully installed, otherwise Activity#RESULT_CANCELED will be returned.
Starting from android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#R, the intent returned by this method cannot be used for installing CA certificates. Since CA certificates can only be installed via Settings, the app should provide the user with a file containing the CA certificate. One way to do this would be to use the android.provider.MediaStore API to write the certificate to the android.provider.MediaStore.Downloads collection.
