ssh signing: support non ssh-* keytypes

The user.signingKey config for ssh signing supports either a path to a
file containing the key or for the sake of convenience a literal string
with the ssh public key. To differentiate between those two cases we
check if the first few characters contain "ssh-" which is unlikely to be
the start of a path. ssh supports other key types which are not prefixed
with "ssh-" and will currently be treated as a file path and therefore
fail to load. To remedy this we move the prefix check into its own
function and introduce the prefix `key::` for literal ssh keys. This way
we don't need to add new key types when they become available. The
existing `ssh-` prefix is retained for compatibility with current user
configs but removed from the official documentation to discourage its
use.
