Added a framework for importing foreign key formats, and implemented

importing of OpenSSH SSH2 private key files (both encrypted and
unencrypted). Seems to work fine.

\S{faq-ssh2-keyfmt}{Question} Does PuTTY support reading OpenSSH or
\cw{ssh.com} SSHv2 private key files?
Not at present. OpenSSH and \cw{ssh.com} have totally different
formats for private key files, and neither one is particularly
pleasant, so PuTTY has its own. We do plan to write a converter at
some stage.
Version 0.52 doesn't, but in the latest development snapshots
PuTTYgen can load OpenSSH private keys. We plan to add an export
feature so that it can save them as well, and we also plan to
support the \cw{ssh.com} key format.
