The code for downloading the revocation certificates should be configurable.

Download the signing key revocation certificates from:

• version 1 - download from clearnet keyservers
• version 2 - optionally download from onion keyservers
• version 3 - optionally download from freenet / or something that implements a permanent takedown attack defense
