pk-crypto: 'canonical-sexp-nth-data' returns a symbol for "tokens".

* guix/pk-crypto.scm (token-string?): New procedure.
  (canonical-sexp-nth-data): Return a symbol when the element is a
  "token", and a bytevector otherwise.
  (latin1-string->bytevector): Remove.
  (hash-data->bytevector): Adjust accordingly.
* tests/pk-crypto.scm ("canonical-sexp-nth"): Adjust accordingly.  Add
  octet string example.
