8f2a7b518b KEYS: x509: clearly distinguish between key and signature algorithms
An X.509 certificate has two, potentially different public key
algorithms: the one used by the certificate's key, and the one that was
used to sign the certificate.  Some of the naming made it unclear which
algorithm was meant.  Rename things appropriately:

    - x509_note_pkey_algo() => x509_note_sig_algo()
    - algo_oid => sig_algo

f1774cb895 X.509: parse public key parameters from x509 for akcipher
Some public key algorithms (like EC-DSA) keep in parameters field
important data such as digest and curve OIDs (possibly more for
different EC-DSA variants). Thus, just setting a public key (as
for RSA) is not enough.

Append parameters into the key stream for akcipher_set_{pub,priv}_key.
Appended data is: (u32) algo OID, (u32) parameters length, parameters
data.

This does not affect current akcipher API nor RSA ciphers (they could
ignore it). Idea of appending parameters to the key stream is by Herbert
Xu.

c26fd69fa0 X.509: Add a crypto key parser for binary (DER) X.509 certificates
Add a crypto key parser for binary (DER) encoded X.509 certificates.  The
certificate is parsed and, if possible, the signature is verified.

An X.509 key can be added like this:

	# keyctl padd crypto bar @s </tmp/x509.cert
	15768135

and displayed like this:

	# cat /proc/keys
	00f09a47 I--Q---     1 perm 39390000     0     0 asymmetri bar: X509.RSA e9fd6d08 []

Note that this only works with binary certificates.  PEM encoded certificates
are ignored by the parser.

Note also that the X.509 key ID is not congruent with the PGP key ID, but for
the moment, they will match.

If a NULL or "" name is given to add_key(), then the parser will generate a key
description from the CertificateSerialNumber and Name fields of the
TBSCertificate:

	00aefc4e I--Q---     1 perm 39390000     0     0 asymmetri bfbc0cd76d050ea4:/C=GB/L=Cambridge/O=Red Hat/CN=kernel key: X509.RSA 0c688c7b []
