I add "RSSSSA-PSS using “ to the `-verbose` output as suggested, and keep the remaining output as the parameters for the RSASSA-PSS contain hashAlgorithm and maskGenAlgorithm that could be disabled or weak. At the same time, strip off the saltLength and trailerField display.

Removed.

No, removed it. Thanks for the review!
