Merge branch 'refs/heads/t/rm_asn'

A few cleanups, and one patch which removes an obsolete feature,
getting rid of an open-coded ASN parser.

Cooking for three months.

* refs/heads/t/rm_asn:
  Remove unused E_PUBLIC_KEY.
  crypt.c: Combine load_key() and get_private_key().
  crypto: Remove support for ASN public keys.
  crypto: Simplify asymetric key handling.
  crypto: Rename check_key_file() -> check_private_key_file().
  gcrypt.c: Always initialize result pointer in get_private_key().

++- Support for RSA public keys in ASN format (as generated by openssl
++  genrsa) has been removed. These keys have been deprecated since
++  2011, so users should have long switched to keys generated with
