Description
This library appears to have support for RSA, Ed25519 and Secp256k1 + NIST Curves.
When integrating with existing systems, developers are likely to encounter at least 3 formats for these keys...
hex / base58 / binary encoded keys, JWK and PEM.
AFAIK, PEM is already supported.
It would be useful to be able to convert between all popular formats using a friendly interface.
Here is a terrible example of handling this for secp256k1:
In addition, it might be desirable to support did:key within this library directly, because of its reliance on https://github.com/multiformats/multicodec/blob/master/table.csv#L81
https://github.com/w3c-ccg/did-method-key
This would allow for js-libp2p-crypto to be the single crypto dependency for systems like did:peer which upgrade from did:key: https://github.com/openssi/peer-did-method-spec
although support for did:key representations of js-libp2p-crypto might be better handled at another layer.
