g10: Remove skeleton options files.

* build-aux/speed/w32/inst.nsi: stop installing skeleton files.
* doc/gpg.texi: stop documenting skeleton files.
* g10/Makefile.am: stop installing skeleton files.
* g10/openfile.c (copy_options_file): Remove.
(try_make_homedir): do not call copy_options_file.

--

The defaults for gpg and dirmngr are good.  Both programs should work
fine for the simple case without any config file.  The skeleton config
files were being copied at first use (when the defaults are fine).
But when the user needs to fiddle with them (after they've become
sophisticated users), they're likely out of date because gpg has been
upgraded since then.  So they're used for documentation, but they're
stale documentation, which is probably worse than a clean empty file.

-#
-#
-# Unless you specify which option file to use (with the command line
-# option "--options filename"), the file ~/.gnupg/dirmngr.conf is used
-# by dirmngr.  The file can contain any long options which are valid
-# for Dirmngr.  If the first non white space character of a line is a
-# '#', the line is ignored.  Empty lines are also ignored.  See the
-# dirmngr man page or the manual for a list of options.

-# --keyserver URI
-#
-# GPG can send and receive keys to and from a keyserver.  These
-# servers can be HKP, Email, or LDAP (if GnuPG is built with LDAP
-# support).
-#
-# Example HKP keyservers:
-#      hkp://keys.gnupg.net
-#
-# Example HKP keyserver using a Tor OnionBalance service
-#      hkp://jirk5u4osbsr34t5.onion
-#
-# Example HKPS keyservers (see --hkp-cacert below):
-#       hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net
-#
-# Example LDAP keyservers:
-#      ldap://pgp.surfnet.nl:11370
-#
-# Regular URL syntax applies, and you can set an alternate port
-# through the usual method:
-#      hkp://keyserver.example.net:22742
-#
-# Note that most servers (with the notable exception of
-# ldap://keyserver.pgp.com) synchronize changes with each other.  Note
-# also that a single server name may actually point to multiple
-# servers via DNS round-robin or service records.
-#
-# If exactly two keyservers are configured and only one is a Tor hidden
-# service, Dirmngr selects the keyserver to use depending on whether
-# Tor is locally running or not (on a per session base).  Example:
-#
-#  keyserver hkp://jirk5u4osbsr34t5.onion
-#  keyserver hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net
-#
-# If no keyserver is specified GnuPG uses
-#  hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net
-
-
-# --hkp-cacert FILENAME
-#
-# For the "hkps" scheme (keyserver access over TLS), Dirmngr needs to
-# know the root certificates for verification of the TLS certificates
-# used for the connection.  Enter the full name of a file with the
-# root certificates here.  If that file is in PEM format a ".pem"
-# suffix is expected.  This option may be given multiple times to add
-# more root certificates.  Tilde expansion is supported.
-# This is not required when the default server
-#   hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net
-# is used.
