Enhancement and bug-fix release

on GitHub

This is an enhancement and bug-fix release, and all users are encouraged to upgrade.

Brief summary:

• Added TRUST_EXPIRED to trust_keys. Thanks to Leif Liddy for the patch.

• Fix #206: Remove deprecated --always-trust in favour of --trust-model always

• Fix #208: Add status_detail attribute to result objects which is populated when
  the status is 'invalid recipient' (encryption/decryption) or 'invalid signer'
  (signing). This attribute will be set when the result object's status attribute is
  set to invalid recipient and will contain more information about the failure in the
  form of reason:ident where reason is a text description of the reason, and
  ident identifies the recipient key.

• Add scan_keys_mem() function to scan keys in a string. Thanks to Sky Moore
  for the patch.

• Fix #214: Handle multiple signatures when one of them is invalid or unverified.

• A problems attribute was added which holds problems reported by gpg
  during verification. This is a list of dictionaries, one for each reported
  problem. Each dictionary will have status and keyid keys indicating
  the problem and the corresponding key; other information in the dictionaries
  will be error specific.

• Fix #217: Use machine-readable interface to query the gpg version. Thanks to Justus
  Winter for the patch.

• Added the ability to export keys to a file. Thanks to Leif Liddy for the patch.
