I just think this is not worth doing. Plus, there are conventions for 
`Destroyable` that need to be followed. For example, after one call `destroy()` 
on a `KeyPair`, can `getPrivateKey()` still be called? Should it throw an 
`IllegalStateException`?

Also, `PrivateKey` has implemented `Destroyable `for quite some time and it 
looks like none of its implementations inside JDK has actually implemented this 
method. This seems a more valuable thing to do. There are other interfaces like 
`KeySpec` (or some of its children) that should also implement `Destroyable`.
