allow ssh-add to read from FIFOs
It looks like ssh-add can no longer read from FIFOs as of 5.7p1 (since
the switch from PEM_read_PrivateKey() to PEM_read_bio_PrivateKey(), and
reading the file into an ssh buffer directly).
Being able to read from a FIFO is nice for tools that don't want to put
keys directly on the filesystem. In fact, we were relying on that
behavior for the monkeysphere, and it's currently breaking because of
the change:

The attached patch fixes things so that ssh-add can read from a FIFO
again.
