if encoding the subject fails.
Remarks
Returns the subject criterion as a byte array. This distinguished name must match the subject distinguished name in the X509Certificate. If null, the subject criterion is disabled and any subject distinguished name will do.
If the value returned is not null, it is a byte array containing a single DER encoded distinguished name, as defined in X.501. The ASN.1 notation for this structure is supplied in the documentation for #setSubject(byte [] subjectDN) setSubject(byte [] subjectDN).
Note that the byte array returned is cloned to protect against subsequent modifications.
