Sorry for the flood of minor feature branches lately, here is another
one which introduces a new "key" selector with which revisions can be
picked which have at least one certificate signed by the specified key.

This might particularily be useful to find orphaned public keys in a
database which never signed a revision or to get a distinct list of
revisions which have been signed by one or more users - though this
doesn't say much what certs they actually signed. (Combining that e.g.
with a generic "b:*" selector wouldn't help since the branch cert on the
revision doesn't have to be the cert we picked a particular revision
for. For this use case the k: selector would have to be coupled with a
second information: a cert name.)

Opinions anyone?
Thomas.
