[PATCH 1/1] macsec: make pre-shared ckn variable length

From: michael-dev <michael-dev at fami-braun.de>

IEEE 802.1X-2010 Section 9.3.1 restricts CKN
> MKA places no restriction on the format of the CKN, save that it comprise
> an integral number of octets, between 1 and 32 (inclusive), and that all
> potential members of the CA use the same CKN. No further constraints are
> placed onthe CKNs used with PSKs, ... .

Hence do not require a 32 byte long CKN but instead allow a shorter ckn
to be configured.

This fixes interoperability with some Aruba Switches, that do not accept
32 byte long ckn (only shorter ones).
