Import ssh keys for public key authentication

Description
-----------
RouterOS supports ssh login with public key authentication. The functions
in this module help importing the keys.
Requirements and installation
-----------------------------
Just install the module:
$ScriptInstallUpdate mod/ssh-keys-import;
Usage and invocation
--------------------
### Import single key from terminal
Call the function `$SSHKeysImport` with key and user as parameter to
import that key:
$SSHKeysImport "ssh-rsa ssh-rsa AAAAB3Nza...QYZk8= user" admin;
The third part of the key (`user` in this example) is inherited as
`key-owner` in RouterOS.
### Import several keys from file
The functions `$SSHKeysImportFile` can read an `authorized_keys`-style file
and import all the keys. The user given to the function can be overwritting
from comments in the file. Create a file `keys.pub` with this content:
```
ssh-rsa AAAAB3Nza...QYZk8= user@client
ssh-rsa AAAAB3Nza...ozyts= worker@station
# user=example
ssh-rsa AAAAB3Nza...GXQVk= person@host
```
Then import it with:
$SSHKeysImportFile keys.pub admin;
This will import the first two keys for user `admin` (as given to function)
and the third one for user `example` (as defined in comment).
