//    (2) OpenSSL PEM or DER traditional SSLeay private keys (encrypted and unencrypted)
//    (3) PKCS #8 PEM or DER encoded private keys (encrypted and unencrypted)
//  Keys in PEM format must have headers/footers .
//  Encrypted Private Key in SSLEay format not supported in DER
//  Removes header/footer lines.
//  For traditional SSLEAY PEM private keys, checks for encrypted format and
//  uses PBE to extract 3DES key.
//  For SSLEAY format, only supports encryption format: DES-EDE3-CBC
//  For PKCS #8, only supports PKCS#5 v2.0  3des.
//  Parses private and public key components and returns .NET RSA object.
//  Creates dummy unsigned certificate linked to private keypair and
//  optionally exports to pkcs #12
