Subject: [PATCH] Enhance nameConstraints with comprehensive exclusions

- Add email domain exclusions (.com, .org, .net, .gov, .edu, .mil, .int)
- Include private IPv4 network exclusions
- Add IPv6 null route exclusion
- Preserve all security constraints from original openssl.cnf.j2
- Note: Complex IPv6 conditional logic simplified for Ansible compatibility

Security: Maintains defense-in-depth certificate scope restrictions
