Allow user to set signature's keyid using `--keyid' option. Keyid should
correspond to SKID in certificate. When keyid is calculated using SHA-1
in libimaevm it may mismatch keyid extracted by the kernel from SKID of
certificate (the way public key is presented to the kernel), thus making
signatures not verifiable. This may happen when certificate is using non
SHA-1 SKID (see rfc7093) or just 'unique number' (see rfc5280 4.2.1.2).
As a last resort user may specify arbitrary keyid using the new option.
Certificate @filename could be used instead of the hex number. And,
third option is to read keyid from the cert appended to the key file.

These commits create backward incompatible ABI change for libimaevm,
  thus soname should be incremented on release.

I hope this will not be forgotten about. Maybe it should be part of this series here?
