[ksk-rollover] Revoking KSK-2010 imminent

I haven’t been paying attention.  Is anything being signed by ksk2010
anymore?  If not, then revoking it should be the very definition of a
non-event.

And you can’t “delay the revoking “ once you’ve published the revoked key.
Revocations take place immediately upon receipt.  You could delete the
revocation from future publications, but I’d guess that if you wait more
than 1ttl after first publication such deletion would have little effect on
the overall system.

Lastly, existing systems should currently be trusting both 2017 and 2010 -
unless manually intervened - so why would systems show only 2017 trust?
