[Servercert-wg] [Voting Period Begins]: SC65: Convert EVGs into RFC 3647 format

[Inigo Barreira]

Summary: 

The Extended Validation Certificates guidelines (EVGs) were developed and
written in a specific format. Since then, the RFC 3647 has been the basis
(and the de-facto standard) for the CA/Browser Forum to develop other
documents.

This ballot aims to update the EVGs to follow the RFC 3647 format without
changing any content, just moving current sections to those defined in the
RFC 3647. This change also affects the Baseline Requirements for TSL
certificates (BRs) which needs to point to the new sections of the EVGs.

This ballot is proposed by Iñigo Barreira (Sectigo) and endorsed by Pedro
Fuentes (OISTE) and Ben Wilson (Mozilla).
