Description
Keystore entries containing private keys and secret keys are normally encrypted using a keystore-specific PBE algorithm. Stronger PBE algorithms are now available so we should enable them to be used.

Modify the KeyStore API to enable a PBE algorithm to be specified for use when encrypting keystore entries.
