Allow a single tab instead of space between key type and key.

Looks like the code in question is in sshkey.c:sshkey_read(), and that
tabs are accepted in many places but not all.  In that code's defense,
the sshd(8) man page specifies that these things are space-separated.

        case KEY_UNSPEC:
[...]
                space = strchr(cp, ' ');
... but later:
                        while (*space == ' ' || *space == '\t')
                                space++;

Please try the attached patch, which should allow a single tab
character instead of a space.
