[0/4] keyutils: fix compilation error with C++

Message

These patches are for the userspace keyutils program and library.

While working on a C++ program that could take advantage of the
keyutils library, I observed that the compilation fails because the
"keyutils.h" header file contains a parameter named "private" which is
a C++ reserved keyword.

* Patch #1 fixes a few typos in the man pages.
* Patch #2 fixes the aforementioned issue.
* Patch #3 helps prevent a similar issue from happening in the future.
* Patch #4 fixes an issue reported by C++ compilers at link time.

With best regards,
