This moves the loading of the keys from the database to the trait and thus with types differing between public and secret keys. This fetches the Config::ConfiguredAddr (configured_addr) directly from the database in the SQL to simplify the API and consistency instead of making this the responsiblity of all callers to get this right. Since anyone invoking these methods also wants to be sure the keys exist, move key generation here as well. This already simplifies some code in contact.rs and will eventually replace all manual checks for existing keys. To make errors more manageable this gives EmailAddress it's own error type and adds some conversions for it. Otherwise the general error type leaks to far. The EmailAddress type also gets its ToSql trait impl to be able to save it to the database directly.
