[9.20] chg: nil: Add dnssec-policy text for dnssec-importkey

key, which means the public key can be added to and removed from the

import key files that cannot be used for signing. In this case, simply publish the
imported DNSKEY record in the zone, and make sure that the files are outside
the configured ``key-directory``.
