Still, I think we should just entirely drop support for embedtls.

Users would be surprised if they have a different behaviour between
using openssl v.s gnutls v.s embedtls.

Then, when embedtls is updated to undersdand that critical extension, we
can re-instate support for embedtls in uacme.

Until then, my opinion is that we should just stop building uacme with
embedtls.

Yann E. MORIN.
