Parity-Signer Secure Key Storage Proposal

Here I conclude the recent research and discussions with the storage of the seed/private key in parity-signer.

Current Implementation

Currently, we require a user to input a pin code for encrypting the seed, and then put the encrypted seed together with other account data into a secure store. The secure store then uses the native KeysStore or KeyChain to store the encrypted account data.

Possible improvement
