Joey Hess 396e47b07e tighten file2key to not produce invalid keys with no keyName
A file named "foo-" or "foo-bar" was taken as a key's file, with a backend
of "foo", and an empty keyName. This led to various problems, especially
because converting that key back to a file did not yeild the same filename.
