PEMKeyManager reads its material from file every time. This is different from the existing key managers (`PKCS12KeyManager`, `LazyKeyManager`) which only reads from file once.
I think the behaviour should be consistent across all key managers, anything else would be confusing. Should the existing key managers be updated to always read from file to allow reloading/auto renewal as well?
