It does not need to be checked, because it also does not change value
pointed by `&keyid_raw' (which is 0 by default). Yes, this is not
mentioned in the `__read_keyid' description. But, otherwise (to change
pointed value on error) would be a bug.

No, it's in native order. This looked reasonable, since it could be
presented to the user as a hex number.
