Will need the timestamp key from kwadronaut (#6189 (closed)) and the targets key from ivan (#6190 (closed))

Generate a new root key with:

openssl genrsa -des3 -out private.pem 4096
The public key can be exported with:
openssl rsa -in private.pem -outform PEM -pubout -out public.pem

And initialize the repo with:

bitmask_client/pkg/tuf/init.py private.pem public.pem targets.key timestamp.key
