Feature Request: Confirm constraint #15

@mhofman

Description

@mhofman

It would be great to support the confirm mechanism that exists in the SSH agent protocol.

Currently when loading a key through ssh-add with the -c option, the key will actually be used silently without any prompt.

I looked through the golang crypto source code, and it looks like the agent server parses the constraint and sets a ConfirmBeforeUse flag on the key, but the keyring.add method simply ignores it.

From a UI persepective, I'd want the options page to set the constraint when adding a key and / or when loading it.
For the prompt, the extension could show a notification (with require interaction set), to ask to either confirm or deny.
