/**
 * Represent the OCSP NoCheck Extension from RFC2560.
 * <p>
 * A CA may specify that an OCSP client can trust a responder for the
 * lifetime of the responder's certificate. The CA does so by including
 * the extension id-pkix-ocsp-nocheck. This SHOULD be a non-critical
 * extension. The value of the extension should be NULL. CAs issuing
 * such a certificate should realized that a compromise of the
 * responder's key, is as serious as the compromise of a CA key used to
 * sign CRLs, at least for the validity period of this certificate. CA's
 * may choose to issue this type of certificate with a very short
 * lifetime and renew it frequently.
 * <pre>
 * id-pkix-ocsp-nocheck OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { id-pkix-ocsp 5 }
 * </pre>
