### Example
    ec = OpenSSL::PKey::EC.new("prime256v1")
    p ec.private_key # => nil
    ec.generate_key!
    p ec.private_key # => #<OpenSSL::BN XXXXXX>


(This method is an alias for OpenSSL::PKey::EC#generate_key!.)

Generates a new random private and public key.

See also the OpenSSL documentation for EC_KEY_generate_key()
