5578559b85 added offloaded key generation
this adds a new service to pre-generate RSA key pairs.  This allows
the expensive (i.e. slow) key generation to be placed into a process
outside the node, so that the node's reactor will not block when it
needs a key pair, but instead can retrieve them from a pool of already
generated key pairs in the key-generator service.

it adds a tahoe create-key-generator command which initialises an 
empty dir with a tahoe-key-generator.tac file which can then be run
via twistd.  it stashes its .pem and portnum for furl stability and
writes the furl of the key gen service to key_generator.furl, also
printing it to stdout.

by placing a key_generator.furl file into the nodes config directory
(e.g. ~/.tahoe) a node will attempt to connect to such a service, and
will use that when creating mutable files (i.e. directories) whenever
possible.  if the keygen service is unavailable, it will perform the
key generation locally instead, as before.
