Updated the default ecdsa p256 key type to not include any parameters. (

#82)

Since TUF spec 1.0.32 the key type for ecdsa does not include the parameters,
they are only part of the key-scheme.
This commit updates the default keytype to not include the parameters, but
includes a compatibility key type to be able to accept metadata compliant
with older versions of the spec.
