Put a flag in the public_key struct to indicate if the structure is holding a private key. The private key must be held ASN.1 encoded in the format specified in RFC 3447 A.1.2. This is the form required by crypto/rsa.c. The software encryption subtype's verification and query functions then need to select the appropriate crypto function to set the key.
