support Ed25519 keys

As of this writing Triton does not have server side support for Ed25519 keys and on first glance BouncyCastle does not support them either. However, we would eventually support them.

So Apache Mina SSHD supports Ed25519 by way of https://github.com/str4d/ed25519-java. I had initially dismissed this library on the fear that "pure java" == slow, and the vigorous disclaimer in the READEMD. FWIW This is library is also used by gerrit.

Currently ed25519 keys aren't supported by x509, which is partly why it's not supported in Triton yet.
