  1. Extend key -read and -write functions 

    If an existing key or the new key is not intended to be stored
in a file, the current implementation requires the creation of
temporary files with all its odds (cleanup, symlink attack, mktemp)

This change allows to provide the key in many different ways:

A filename of "-" translates to <stdin> for reading and
<stdout> for writing.

If the file named by "filename" does not exist,
check whether it contains a "-----BEGIN" and try interpreting
the filename itself as key.

Extend documentation in README.md
