Normalize the markdown for certificates page

This page was using some implicit code snippets (i.e. indent text by 8 spaces).
Grammar like this works but should be avoided when possible.

<!-- overview -->
When using client certificate authentication, you can generate certificates
manually through `easyrsa`, `openssl` or `cfssl`.

### easyrsa
**easyrsa** can manually generate certificates for your cluster.
1. Download, unpack, and initialize the patched version of easyrsa3.
1. Download, unpack, and initialize the patched version of `easyrsa3`.

tar xzf easy-rsa.tar.gz
cd easy-rsa-master/easyrsa3
./easyrsa init-pki
```
1. Generate a new certificate authority (CA). `--batch` sets automatic mode;
`--req-cn` specifies the Common Name (CN) for the CA's new root certificate.
```shell
./easyrsa --batch "--req-cn=${MASTER_IP}@`date +%s`" build-ca nopass
```
1. Generate server certificate and key.
The argument `--subject-alt-name` sets the possible IPs and DNS names the API server will
be accessed with. The `MASTER_CLUSTER_IP` is usually the first IP from the service CIDR
that is specified as the `--service-cluster-ip-range` argument for both the API server and

with real values before saving this to a file (e.g. `csr.conf`).

**cfssl** is another tool for certificate generation.

Note that you may need to adapt the sample commands based on the hardware
architecture and cfssl version you are using.
