import-key now requires a hostname be specified, and no longer does
any hostname guessing. this is so that we don't have to worry about prompting the user when guessing the hostname. also updated documentation.

you have the ssh server installed, and that you have generated a host
RSA key. Once that has been done, import the key:
- # monkeysphere-host import-key /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
+ # monkeysphere-host import-key /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key server.example.net
This will generate an OpenPGP certificate for server. The primary
user ID for this certificate will be the ssh service URI for the host,
-which by default is based on the output of `hostname -f`
-(eg. `ssh://server.example.net`). If the name determined from
-`hostname -f` is not the name you want to have in the service URI,
-then you can enter one manually:
-
- # monkeysphere-host import-key /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key host.example.net

-Remember that the name you provide here must be a fully qualified
-domain name for the host in order for the monkeysphere to work.

Now you can display information about the host key's certificate with
the 'show-key' command:
