Mauro Carvalho Chehab 0efaaa8658 docs: crypto: convert asymmetric-keys.txt to ReST
This file is almost compatible with ReST. Just minor changes
were needed:

- Adjust document and titles markups;
- Adjust numbered list markups;
- Add a comments markup for the Contents section;
- Add markups for literal blocks.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 5fb94e9ca3 docs: Fix some broken references
As we move stuff around, some doc references are broken. Fix some of
them via this script:
	./scripts/documentation-file-ref-check --fix

Manually checked if the produced result is valid, removing a few
false-positives.

David Howells 9eb029893a KEYS: Generalise x509_request_asymmetric_key()
Generalise x509_request_asymmetric_key().  It doesn't really have any
dependencies on X.509 features as it uses generalised IDs and the
public_key structs that contain data extracted from X.509.

David Howells e68503bd68 KEYS: Generalise system_verify_data() to provide access to internal content
Generalise system_verify_data() to provide access to internal content
through a callback.  This allows all the PKCS#7 stuff to be hidden inside
this function and removed from the PE file parser and the PKCS#7 test key.

If external content is not required, NULL should be passed as data to the
function.  If the callback is not required, that can be set to NULL.

The function is now called verify_pkcs7_signature() to contrast with
verify_pefile_signature() and the definitions of both have been moved into
linux/verification.h along with the key_being_used_for enum.

David Howells 3b76456317 KEYS: Allow authentication data to be stored in an asymmetric key
Allow authentication data to be stored in an asymmetric key in the 4th
element of the key payload and provide a way for it to be destroyed.

For the public key subtype, this will be a public_key_signature struct.

David Howells 146aa8b145 KEYS: Merge the type-specific data with the payload data
Merge the type-specific data with the payload data into one four-word chunk
as it seems pointless to keep them separate.

Use user_key_payload() for accessing the payloads of overloaded
user-defined keys.

Dmitry Kasatkin f1b731dbc2 KEYS: Restore partial ID matching functionality for asymmetric keys
Bring back the functionality whereby an asymmetric key can be matched with a
partial match on one of its IDs.

Whilst we're at it, allow for the possibility of having an increased number of
IDs.

David Howells 7901c1a8ef KEYS: Implement binary asymmetric key ID handling
Implement the first step in using binary key IDs for asymmetric keys rather
than hex string keys.

The previously added match data preparsing will be able to convert hex
criterion strings into binary which can then be compared more rapidly.

Further, we actually want more then one ID string per public key.  The problem
is that X.509 certs refer to other X.509 certs by matching Issuer + AuthKeyId
to Subject + SubjKeyId, but PKCS#7 messages match against X.509 Issuer +
SerialNumber.

This patch just provides facilities for a later patch to make use of.

David Howells 964f3b3bf4 KEYS: Implement asymmetric key type
Create a key type that can be used to represent an asymmetric key type for use
in appropriate cryptographic operations, such as encryption, decryption,
signature generation and signature verification.

The key type is "asymmetric" and can provide access to a variety of
cryptographic algorithms.

Possibly, this would be better as "public_key" - but that has the disadvantage
that "public key" is an overloaded term.
