borg: Fix a bug that prevented importing keys of type URL and WORM
Keys stored on the filesystem are mangled by keyFile to avoid problem
chars. So, that mangling has to be reversed when parsing files from a
borg backup back to a key.

The directory special remote also so mangles them. Some other special
remotes do not; eg S3 just serializes the key -- but S3 object names are
not limited to filesystem valid filenames anyway, so a S3 server must
not map them directly to files in any case. It seems unlikely that a
borg backup of some such special remote will get broken by this change.
