krb5_db_store_mkey allows one to specify where to store the stashed
master key. Unfortunately, there is no way to specify a location to read
it!! 

fetch_mkey allows you to get the password from the keyboard or the
stashed file.

I propose adding another argument to krb5_db_fetch_mkey with the keyfile
name. 

Any comments?
