KEYS: Add a new keyctl op to reject a key with a specified error code

Add a new keyctl op to reject a key with a specified error code.  This works
much the same as negating a key, and so keyctl_negate_key() is made a special
case of keyctl_reject_key().  The difference is that keyctl_negate_key()
selects ENOKEY as the error to be reported.

Typically the key would be rejected with EKEYEXPIRED, EKEYREVOKED or
EKEYREJECTED, but this is not mandatory.
