Add CA capability to test-network-nano-bash

This change adds: - shell scripts to start CAs for each org - optional flag (-c) to network.sh to start CAs - generate crypto material in the same format as cryptogen using the CAs - describe how to start the CAs using terminals Signed-off-by: Chris Elder <[email protected]>

 Note the syntax of running the scripts. The peer admin scripts set the admin environment variables and must be run with the `source` command in order that the exported environment variables can be utilized by any subsequent user commands.
 
+## Running each component separately with CAs

+These instructions are for running the CAs from terminal sessions.  Open terminal windows for 3 CAs as seen in the following terminal setup. These instructions should be followd before opening the ordering and peer windows described above.

+- Instead of running the  `./generate_artifacts.sh` described above, in the three CA terminals, run `./ordererca.sh`, `./org1ca.sh`, `./org2ca.sh` respectively.
+- In the first orderer terminal, run `./generate_artifacts.sh "" true` to generate crypto material using the CAs and application channel genesis block and configuration transactions (calls configtxgen). The artifacts will be created in the `crypto-config` and `channel-artifacts` directories. If you are running BFT consensus then run `./generate_artifacts.sh BFT true`.  All artifacts generated with the CA will conform to the same directory structure as cryptogen.

 ## Starting the network with one command
 
 Using the individual scripts above gives you more control of the process of starting a Fabric network and demonstrates how all the required components fit together, however the same network can also be started using a single script for convenience.

 After the network has started, use separate terminals to run peer commands.
 You will need to configure the peer environment for each new terminal.
