Key link restrictions require restriction-specific data as well as a
restriction-specific function pointer. As a first step toward replacing
the restrict_link pointer in struct key, define a more general
key_restriction structure that captures the function and data, as well
as a data freeing function and a key type pointer for use in garbage
collection. Key type modules should not be pinned on account of this
key type pointer because the pointer will be cleared by the garbage
collector if the key type is unregistered.
