Simplify Public/Private keypair loading for ops #30

There are several ways to load/generate private/public keypairs for the application right now. Let's take it a few steps back and make it one way. Why? This will simplify our deployment, configuration and reduce code paths to just get it running.

In server/config/ we will have:

private-key.pem
public-key.pem

the paths for these are baked into the application's code and can not be changed. They must exist otherwise the server won't start.

+1. I suggest a simple wrapper script that creates the keypair, and a configurable path.
