KEYS: asymmetric: Fix ECDSA use via keyctl uapi
When support for ECDSA keys was added, constraints for data & signature sizes were never updated. This makes it impossible to use such keys via keyctl API from userspace. Update constraint on max_data_size to 64 bytes in order to support SHA512-based signatures. Also update the signature length constraints per ECDSA signature encoding described in RFC 5480.
