Create a dialogue box that indicates when RSA key pairs are being generated, while they are generating. #9

There should be a " progress dialogue box" that pops up for the rsa key generation. Maybe have it say something like: "RSA key pair missing, generating a new RSA key pair, this may take a few minutes, please standby."

Also and include a pin wheel, and maybe a cancel button that would close the program earlier, but obviously the RSA key generation would have to start the process again on the next launch if ended early by canceling, or by terminating early via a task manager or terminal, or if the RSA key pair goes missing for whatever reason.

Why? There is (or should be) console output while RSA (or GUID) key is generated.

@TheDushan with the implementation for the RSA key we currently have in the 1.3 engine, when we had RSA key generation automatically enabled on first startup, it would typically take a few minutes, and while it occurred there was no feedback on what was happening, and nothing could be done until it was finished. It gave people the impression that the game was hanging, so we disabled auto rsa key generation on first startup.
