Rob Blanckaert ba07ae83b5 Update CryptoKey documentation to mention ECC.
The documentation makes it seem like CryptoKey can only hold an RSA key.  This is compounded by the fact that Cypto only has a function generate an RSA based key.  Godot however is perfectly happy loading and using ECC based keys.

<brief_description>
A cryptographic key (RSA or elliptic-curve).
</brief_description>
<description>
The CryptoKey class represents a cryptographic key. Keys can be loaded and saved like any other [Resource].
They can be used to generate a self-signed [X509Certificate] via [method Crypto.generate_self_signed_certificate] and as private key in [method StreamPeerTLS.accept_stream] along with the appropriate certificate.

<method name="is_public_only" qualifiers="const">
<return type="bool" />
<description>
Returns [code]true[/code] if this CryptoKey only has the public part, and not the private one.

<method name="load">
<return type="int" enum="Error" />
<param index="0" name="path" type="String" />

<description>
Loads a key from [param path]. If [param public_only] is [code]true[/code], only the public key will be loaded.
[b]Note:[/b] [param path] should be a "*.pub" file if [param public_only] is [code]true[/code], a "*.key" file otherwise.

<description>
Loads a key from the given [param string_key]. If [param public_only] is [code]true[/code], only the public key will be loaded.
