[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.
