fix(ext/node): sign with PEM private keys (#21287)

Add support for signing with a RSA PEM private key: `pkcs8` and `pkcs1`.

Fixes https://github.com/denoland/deno/issues/18972
Ref #21124 

Verified fix with `npm:sshpk`. Unverfied but fixes
`npm:google-auth-library`, `npm:web-push` & `oracle/oci-typescript-sdk`
