Create public API to feed private-key-bytes from external source (e.g. for brainwallets) #2

Include a new public API to feed private-key-bytes from an external source instead of the likely default current behaviour of grin-wallet which might be relying on some random number generation to create the private key. The motivation for this would be so that one can use a brain-wallet mechanism with MimbleWimble(Grin); the task would be wrapped up by having geewallet https://github.com/knocte/geewallet call into this API (just as a proof of concept, enough to make it work with the console frontend, no need to tinker with UI) via p/invokes (DllImport elements).
