Subject: [GIT PULL] Keys fixes

Please pull these fixes for the keys code.

>From David:

" (1) Fix mpi_powm()'s handling of a number with a zero exponent
[CVE-2016-8650].

(2) Fix double free in X.509 error handling.

Ver #3:

- Integrate my and Andrey's patches for mpi_powm() and use mpi_resize()
instead of RESIZE_IF_NEEDED() - the latter adds a duplicate check into
the execution path of a trivial case we don't normally expect to be
taken.

Ver #2:

- Use RESIZE_IF_NEEDED() to conditionally resize the result rather than
manually doing this. "
