Is it correct that there is no simple way to create a
gnutls_pk_params_st ? gnutls_pk_params_init and gnutls_pk_params_release
is all there is?
gnutls_rsa_params_t and gnutls_x509_privkey_t seems to be very similar
to gnutls_pk_params_st, but the types seems be held very separate with
no simple conversions?
It seems like it could be nice to use something like a cousin of
gnutls_rsa_params_import_raw. Or how could you imagine that
gnutls_pk_params_st based RSA keys could be handled?
