keyctl_*() - key management function wrappers

The *keyctl*() system call is a multiplexor for a number of key management functions. These should be called via the wrappers in the libkeyutils library.

The functions can be compiled in by including the keyutils header file:

    #include <keyutils.h>
    and then telling the linker it should link in the library:

    -lkeyutils
