	// GetIssuerTypeIdentifier returns a string that uniquely identifies the

	// issuer type. This string is used as a prefix when determining the
	// issuer type for a Kubernetes CertificateSigningRequest resource based
	// on the issuerName field. The value should be formatted as follows:
	// "<issuer resource (plural)>.<issuer group>". For example, the value
	// "simpleclusterissuers.issuer.cert-manager.io" will match all CSRs
	// with an issuerName set to eg. "simpleclusterissuers.issuer.cert-manager.io/issuer1".
