ssh signing: support non ssh-* keytypes 

The user.signingKey config for ssh signing supports either a path to a
file containing the key or for the sake of convenience a literal string
with the ssh public key. To differentiate between those two cases we
check if the first few characters contain "ssh-" which is unlikely to be
the start of a path. ssh supports other key types which are not prefixed
with "ssh-" and will currently be treated as a file path and therefore
fail to load. To remedy this we move the prefix check into its own
function and introduce the prefix `key::` for literal ssh keys. This way
we don't need to add new key types when they become available. The
existing `ssh-` prefix is retained for compatibility with current user
configs but removed from the official documentation to discourage its
use.

@ -36,10 +36,13 @@ user.signingKey::
commit, you can override the default selection with this variable.
This option is passed unchanged to gpg's --local-user parameter,
so you may specify a key using any method that gpg supports.
If gpg.format is set to "ssh" this can contain the literal ssh public
key (e.g.: "ssh-rsa XXXXXX identifier") or a file which contains it and
corresponds to the private key used for signing. The private key
needs to be available via ssh-agent. Alternatively it can be set to
a file containing a private key directly. If not set git will call
gpg.ssh.defaultKeyCommand (e.g.: "ssh-add -L") and try to use the first
key available.
If gpg.format is set to `ssh` this can contain the path to either
your private ssh key or the public key when ssh-agent is used.
Alternatively it can contain a public key prefixed with `key::`
directly (e.g.: "key::ssh-rsa XXXXXX identifier"). The private key
needs to be available via ssh-agent. If not set git will call
gpg.ssh.defaultKeyCommand (e.g.: "ssh-add -L") and try to use the
first key available. For backward compatibility, a raw key which
begins with "ssh-", such as "ssh-rsa XXXXXX identifier", is treated
as "key::ssh-rsa XXXXXX identifier", but this form is deprecated;
use the `key::` form instead.
