Import key using mnemonic

See original GitHub issue

I’ve read over the documentation, so please feel free to point out if I’ve missed something. 😃

I’m trying to import a key into bit using the 12-word mnemonic seed, as generated by https://github.com/trezor/python-mnemonic. I get the seed via:

import mnemonic
mobj = mnemonic.Mnemonic("english")
seed = mobj.to_seed("my words go here")

But, I do not see a way to do that. Am I missing something? Or is that functionality missing?
