sm: Consider certificates w/o CRL DP as valid.

Browse source 
* sm/certchain.c (is_cert_still_valid): Shortcut if tehre is no DP.
* common/audit.c (proc_type_verify): Print "n/a" if a cert has no
distribution point.
* sm/gpgsm.h (opt): Add field enable_issuer_based_crl_check.
* sm/gpgsm.c (oEnableIssuerBasedCRLCheck): New.
(opts): Add option --enable-issuer-based-crl-check.
(main): Set option.

If the issuer does not provide a DP and the user wants such an issuer,
we expect that a certificate does not need revocation checks.  The new
option --enable-issuer-based-crl-check can be used to revert to the
old behaviour which requires that a suitable LDAP server has been
configured to lookup a CRL by issuer.

along with the option @option{--with-validation} for a key listing
command. This option should not be used in a configuration file.

Run a CRL check even for certificates which do not have any CRL
distribution point. This requires that a suitable LDAP server has
been configured in Dirmngr and that the CRL can be found using the
issuer. This option reverts to what GnuPG did up to version 2.2.20.
This option is in general not useful.
