[pve-devel] [PATCH common] Add validate_ssh_public_keys

in preparation of allowing to set up SSH keys when creating
containers. This only works with OpenSSH's public key format
at the moment, one key per line.

The ugly <<< syntax is necessary since we don't want to
create a temp file for this, and ssh-keygen cannot read
the key data from stdin in a sane way.
