Certbot `--reuse-key` flag does not preserve public key

Hi @sebashack

that's

expected.

The cert.pem contains the CT log entry, informations about the intermediate certificate and a timestamp. And the signature -> new CT log entry + new timestamp -> new signature.

So the cert.pem is new. And the public key (part of cert.pem) is the same, these are two different things.
