crypto: reading and writing recovery keys

This commit adds in the concept of recovery codes: human-readable
strings that contain the necessary information to rederive a
cryptographic key. These keys look like:
	73PZBXVP-DKJX7SKV-NNTFIC7A-QEGRPZUX-4K5ORRH2-MTKMKP3B-HFCA====

They are input or output directly to a io.Reader or io.Writer
respectively. This prevents the data from passing through unsecured
memory before it gets to its destination. Of course, if the provided
io.Reader or io.Writer is insecure, there is nothing we can do. In most
cases the provided io.Reader or io.Writer will be stdin or stdout. In
some rare cases you might want to pipe the output to another key.

This commit also adds tests and benchmarks for encoding/decoding
recovery codes. It also tests that encoding/decoding will fail in the
correct situations. A benchmark is also added to measure the effect of
locking the keys in memory.
