Replace use of Sequoia's backend with a custom key store.

- Sequoia's key store doesn't meet pep's needs (in particular, the
ability to search on a key's user id) and trying to shoehorn pep's
needs onto Sequoia's key store abstractions is just introducing
overhead with no appreciable gain in functionality.

- This patch changes the Sequoia backend to use a local sqlite
database to store the public keys.

Engine tests now require libcpptest - if you have compilation failures using your distribution's lib (I'm looking at you, Ubuntu), please download the source at http://cpptest.sourceforge.net/, compile, and run.

        * 2. If performing comparisons, please parenthesise liberally - bitwise operations being compared to 0 should always be parenthesised before comparison
