Description

If the config.xml contains an empty certificate (<cert></cert>) it leads to a PHP error when attempting to add a new certificate:

PHP Warning:  Illegal string offset 'descr' in /usr/local/www/system_certmanager.php on line 947
PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Error: Cannot use assign-op operators with string offsets in /usr/local/www/system_certmanager.php:947
Stack trace:
#0 {main}
  thrown in /usr/local/www/system_certmanager.php on line 947

It also shows up in the cert list as an incomplete entry (which is somewhat expected since it is not properly defined)

On 2.4.5-DEVELOPMENT (arm) Mon Nov 05 15:36:37 EST 2018 FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p4:

Created a test cert, then opened /cf/conf/config.xml for editing, removed content of the test cert between <cert></cert> tags, saved files changes. Then run
rm /tmp/config.cache in shell, went back to certificate manager and created new certificate - no errors, looks good.

To be sure I am not missing something - I repeated the same steps on 2.4.4 and got the php error in topic description when creating new cert.
