I added the top-level target "kvm-keys-up-to-date" (see
mk/kvm-targets.mk) which will fail if the key files are "old".  It
suggests:
  make kvm-clean-keys kvm-keys
as a way to fix this.

Since "make check" is calling the above, the test run won't start if
the tests are out-of-date.   It doesn't try to automatically update
out-of-date keys, or generate keys when they appear missing.
