Export ED25519 private key with password by default

Export ED25519 private key with password by default, but do not know how much password.

In addition, ED25519 cannot export the PEM private key.

Same issue (XCA 2.4.0). It seems impossible to export an ED25519 private key in "PEM private" format to clipboard. It does work when selecting "PEM public" and "PKCS#8" format. When trying to export to file, there is no "PEM private" option in the dropdown list.

Maybe this is already mentioned somewhere, but the ED25519 private key export creates an invalid or unsupported PEM formatted file. -----BEGIN ED25519 PRIVATE KEY----- XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX -----END ED25519 PRIVATE KEY----- Should be: -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX -----END PRIVATE KEY-----
