Fix an off-by-one in dsa_check_key()
The private key is a random number in [1, q-1], so 1 must be allowed. Since q is at least an 160-bit prime and 2^159 + 1 is not prime (159 is not a power of 2), the probability that this is hit is < 2^-159, but a tiny little bit wrong is still wrong. Found while investigating a report by bluhm ok jsing
