I'm really not getting what the "key" argument to CCHmacInit() is
supposed to be. I'm trying to implement oauth linked-in integration,
and linked-in has given me a "secret key" which looks something like:

Yj1-6OZ<redacted>ZBInu-xiaBVX7RjAO<redacted>TVSCFS9_3lmTtvto<redacted>

(The "<redacted>" bits are _purely_ just strings of upper or lower
case ASCII letters, which I ripped out because they key is supposed to
be a secret).

Am I just supposed to pass this string (encoded as ASCII) to CCHmacInit?

It sure doesn't look like base-64, since base-64 (as I know it)
doesn't have the chars "-" or "_".

I'm really confused here.
