This started with noticing the semaphore package (forked for use in OCSP) was dead.

That followed by using the golang deadcode tool and Goland's various "Unused ..." inspection tools to find other dead code.

Nothing in here looks like it would be used externally to Boulder, as far as I can tell.

This code was forked to support OCSP live signing, which is a feature that has
been removed from the codebase. This code is now dead.
