Add support for SSH_CONFIG regular expressions #74

SSH config files can have regular expressions that will apply options to any matching hostname. For example consider the following:

Host myhost-*
  IdentityFile ~/.ssh/keys/myhostkey

Host myhost-external
  Hostname external_url
  Port 2222
Host myhost-internal
  Hostname internal_url
  Port 22

keychain will fail to find the private key for myhostkey because myhost-* won't match the keyname, however this is a perfectly legal ssh config.
