Comment (by s7r):
Since `--master-key` and `--out` are meant to split in 2 the attributes of
`--DataDirectory` and eliminate the requirement of of a "keys" subfolder,
we should code it in a way that these cannot be used together, to avoid
confusions.
`--DataDirectory` will expect to find the master identity key in the given
path under a "keys" subfolder under the filename
"ed25519_master_id_secret_key" or "ed25519_master_id_secret_key_encrypted"
and save all the output files in the same place.
`--master-key` and `--out` will require a direct path to the master
identity key that can have any filename and a direct path for saving the
output files. Might as well treat `--master-key` and `--out` dependent on
each other.
