Add functions for dealing with PGP armor header lines to pgcrypto.

Browse Source 
This add a new pgp_armor_headers function to extract armor headers from an
ASCII-armored blob, and a new overloaded variant of the armor function, for
constructing an ASCII-armor with extra headers.

Marko Tiikkaja and me.

If the <parameter>keys</> and <parameter>values</> arrays are specified,
an <firstterm>armor header</> is added to the armored format for each
key/value pair. Both arrays must be single-dimensional, and they must
be of the same length. The keys and values cannot contain any non-ASCII
characters.
