Thanks to Paul Ferster for this patch. Its worth elaborating a little
more on this.

Typically CRDA has only allowed adding of public keys at build time.
Adding alternative public keys for CRDA allows for third party
authored files to be redistributed and used. This is now documented
here:

With the new patch by Paul you can read keys put in place on a
preconfigured directory, by default /etc/wireless-regdb/pubkeys. This
is currently only available with USE_OPENSSL=1 as gcrypt lacks a PEM
parser.
