Previously, we would decode the PEM wrapper for keys twice: once in
get_next_token, and once later in PEM decode. Now we just do all of
the wrapper and base64 stuff in get_next_token, and store the
base64-decoded part in the token object for keys and non-keys alike.
This change should speed up parsing slightly by letting us skip a
bunch of stuff in crypto_pk_read_*from_string(), including the tag
detection parts of pem_decode(), and an extra key allocation and
deallocation pair.
Retaining the base64-decoded part in the token object will allow us
to speed up our microdesc parsing, since it is the asn1 portion that
we actually want to retain.
The strcmp_len() function was somewhat misconceived, since we're
only using it to test whether a length+extent string is equal to a
NUL-terminated string or not. By simplifying it and making it
inlined, we should be able to make it a little faster.
(It *does* show up in profiles.)
Closes ticket 28856.
I believe we originally added this for "just in case" safety, but it
isn't actually needed -- we never copy uninitialized stack here.
What's more, this one memset is showing up on our startup profiles,
so we ought to remove it.
Closes ticket 28852.
