…ted private keys

As described by RFC7468 and RFC5958, keys that are encoded using the "ENCRYPTED
PRIVATE KEY" label are described as private key information and therefore can
contain secrets, even though encrypted.

'OpenVPN Static key V1' label is often used by OpenVPN for providing hardening
security with additional HMAC signatures to the SSL/TLS handshake packets. They
are shared secrets and should be kept private.
