Ok. From the discussion around 'automate put_pub_key' I got the
impression 'mtn read <key>' was deprecated. I guess not.

The top level code in cmd_packet.cc makes no distinction between key and
other packets. But we could delete the non-key operations from packet.hh
packet_consumer.

There is already an 'automate read_packets' command!

So I think 'automate put_pub_key" is already implemented.

Unless the point was to have some other format for the input. Bug 30345
doesn't say what format is expected. ASCII-armored was mentioned in
chat, but I'm not sure that's a format spec?
