//! `mkit keygen` — generate a fresh signing key for one of the three
//! attestation algorithms.
//!
//! ```text
//! mkit keygen [--algorithm ed25519|secp256k1|p256] [--force] [--print-pubkey]
//! ```
//!
//! Behaviour:
//!
//! * `--algorithm` defaults to `ed25519` (backward-compat with the
//!   original single-algorithm command). `ed25519` writes to
//!   `.mkit/keys/default.key`; `secp256k1` / `p256` write to the path
//!   configured via `attest.<algo>_key_path` (default
//!   `.mkit/keys/<algo>.key`).
//! * `--force` overwrites an existing key file; without it, refuse with
//!   a clear error.
//! * `--print-pubkey` emits the canonical keyid on stdout so downstream
//!   tooling can populate trust-roots entries without needing to parse
//!   key files:
//!     * `ed25519:<64-hex>`
//!     * `secp256k1:<66-hex>` (33-byte compressed SEC1)
//!     * `p256:<66-hex>`     (33-byte compressed SEC1)
//!
//! Key-file layout mirrors what the repo-key signer factory loads:
//! a raw 32-byte secret, mode `0600` on Unix. The mode is set on the
//! open file handle (not via a post-write `chmod`/`rename`) so the
//! secret is never briefly world-readable in a TOCTOU window between
//! creating the file and tightening its permissions.
