Problems with adding a new resource

@garrett It seems i managed to get it working.
I think it was a accumulation of different things together.

  1. At first i copied pasted the private and public keys into a textbox for testing. But i suspect there might have been an issue with the default encoding of strings. Now i have download them from the passbolt server as files and load the files at runtime with the correct encoding. However i do not use the public key file anymore, see point 2.
  2. I found in the Go sample that the users public key is downloaded from the Passbolt server after login. I changed my application to do the same, so i make sure that the public key is always correct for the logged in user.
  3. The significant length difference in the OpenPGP message between the Go sample and my application was because i needed to use a different encrypting function. I used the function EncryptStream, and i needed to use EncryptArmoredStringAndSign.

It might be one of these 3 points but after playing around with all 3 i managed to get it working. So i cannot be exactly sure. But my guess is that point 3 fixed it.

There is still quite a few things i need to add before the API implementation is done. But this was probably one of the toughest parts to go through. If i have the encrypting/decrypting sorted the rest is just making sure the API calls are correct.
