Subject: [PATCH v6 2/3] IMA: Define an IMA hook to measure keys

Measure asymmetric keys used for verifying file signatures,
certificates, etc.

This patch defines a new IMA hook namely ima_post_key_create_or_update()
to measure asymmetric keys.

Note that currently IMA subsystem can be enabled without
enabling KEYS subsystem.

Adding support for measuring asymmetric keys in IMA requires KEYS
subsystem to be enabled. To handle this dependency a new config
namely CONFIG_IMA_MEASURE_ASYMMETRIC_KEYS has been added. Enabling
this config requires the following configs to be enabled:
    CONFIG_IMA, CONFIG_KEYS, CONFIG_ASYMMETRIC_KEY_TYPE, and
    CONFIG_ASYMMETRIC_PUBLIC_KEY_SUBTYPE.

CONFIG_IMA_MEASURE_ASYMMETRIC_KEYS is off by default.

The IMA hook is defined in a new file namely ima_asymmetric_keys.c
which is built only if CONFIG_IMA_MEASURE_ASYMMETRIC_KEYS is enabled.
