 Right now we say that a microdesc starts with an onion-key field, and the
 onion-key contains a 1024-bit RSA key.  This is true of any microdesc that
 we can currently _use_, but for caching purposes, we should probably be
 more tolerant so that we can have caches tolerate other key types in the
 distant happy future.
