Encrypt the private key file on disk #2657

@yutianwu

Description

@yutianwu

So far, we store private key file on disk unencrypted.

But if we use the unencrypted private key file in production, we will be at the risk of leaking the private key which is classified. For example, people who maintain the validator will have access to the machine host the validator.

So can we encrypt the private key file on disk? just like keystore of Ethereum.
