A common use-case when implementing rekeying or testing is to be able to generate a similar key to an already existing one. This PR adds a
JWK.generate_similar(key)
classmethod to support this, as well as aJWK.get_generate_params()
to get the parameters used to generate a key. Test cases included.Perhaps there's an easier way to do this; if so please enlighten me.
