This reduces APK size by 142 bytes, to 678 bytes, by shrinking the APK's signature (APK Signature Scheme v2) from 603 to 461 bytes. The APK's Signature Scheme v2 signature includes the signing certificate in uncompressed form. Most information contained in the certificate is not needed by Android or the APK signing tools. This change thus switches to a hand-crafted minimalistic certificate which is good enough for Android and apksigner.
