Get Card Pubkey

This command reads the card public key. During the installation of the applet, the card initializes its own EC R1 pair. This command is only useful for the manufacturer at the factory to send the Cryptnox certificate in the card, which contains this card public key, thus authenticating the genuineness of the card.
