+Deploys a secure apt OpenPGP key. This usually accompanies the

+you would do:
+
+ apt::key::plain { 'neurodebian.asc':
+ source => 'puppet:///modules/site_apt/neurodebian.asc',

+This deploys the key in the `${apt_base_dir}/keys` directory (as
+opposed to `$custom_key_dir` which deploys it in `keys.d`). The reason
+this exists on top of `$custom_key_dir` is to allow a more
+decentralised distribution of those keys, without having all modules
+throw their keys in the same directory in the manifests.
