Properly report the ID of newly added keys

Browse source 
Other commands like key list and key remove show the key's ID.

Showing the ID here lets users easily reuse the ID as a key hint for subsequent
commands.
In particular, a key hint is needed when the repository has many keys - otherwise
opening the repository may fail with "Fatal: maximum number of keys reached" even
when a proper password is provided.

Fixes #4656

Bugfix: Properly report the ID of newly added keys
`restic key add` now reports the ID of a newly added key. This simplifies
selecting a specific key using the `--key-hint key` option.
