Certificate for relaysrv with better naming #7108

Description

@LukeKitt

Include required information

Please be sure to include at least:

  • what problem your new feature would solve
    If an AV-software checks the validity of SSL-connections the strelaysrv gets catched because of a selfsign certificate.
    If a person checks that, the organisation name in the certificate is strange and it is not obvious that it belongs to syncthing.
    I blocked the connections first because I didn't trust the certificate because of the long expire time.
  • how or why you think it is generally useful (i.e., not just for you)
    A organisation field filled with O:"Syncting" or CN: "Syncting relay server" would make the certificate much more trustworthy and a person would recognize it.
  • what alternatives or workarounds you considered
    A dialog on the first startup that encourages you to install the certificate.

I attached a screenshot of my av-software warning me about the connection (its in german so sorry for that)
