       gnutls_x509_privkey_import - API function
       #include <gnutls/x509.h>
       int gnutls_x509_privkey_import(gnutls_x509_privkey_t key, const
       gnutls_datum_t * data, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t format);
       gnutls_x509_privkey_t key
                   The data to store the parsed key
       const gnutls_datum_t * data
                   The DER or PEM encoded certificate.
       gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t format
                   One of DER or PEM
       This function will convert the given DER or PEM encoded key to the
       native gnutls_x509_privkey_t format. The output will be stored in
        key .
       If the key is PEM encoded it should have a header that contains
       "PRIVATE KEY". Note that this function falls back to PKCS 8
       decoding without password, if the default format fails to import.
       On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a negative
       error value.
