Install Primus PKCS#11 Provider

Install and configure the Primus PKCS#11 API Provider on all machines that are running HashiCorp Vault Enterprise.

To check that the PKCS#11 API Provider is correctly installed, check that you can connect to the HSM:

$ ppin --test

Load config file: '/etc/primus/primus.cfg'

hsm0: Connect to ch01-api.cloudshsm.com port 2310, firmware: RX-2.10.0-T
          slot0 (id=0), user=MYVAULT: OK

Note down the slot id, as you will need them for the vault configuration.
