This changeset cleans up some of the whitespace in the script and adds support for the mini private key format described at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mini_private_key_format, which is used by Casascius's physical bitcoins (https://www.casascius.com/). I've tested it at the command line with two short format keys, and it worked fine. Further than that I can make no guarantees.

… not trust that it works properly. I've briefly tested it by importing a couple of keys, but that's all.

Added the facility to import mini private key format keys, as described at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mini_private_key_format.  So far this only supports the SHA256 mini key format, and does not support PBKDF2.
