dirmngr: Make --use-tor work - still leaks DNS.

Browse source 
* dirmngr/dirmngr.c (set_tor_mode): New.
(main, reread_configuration): Call it.
* dirmngr/http.c (http_raw_connect, send_request): Check whether TOR
mode is enabled if the FORCE_TOR flag is given.
--

The patch for http.c is a sanity check because tor mode is anyway
global as long as the Assuan socket wrappers are used.

This options is not yet functional! It will eventually switch GnuPG
into a TOR mode to route all network access via TOR (an anonymity
network).
This option switches Dirmngr and thus GnuPG into ``TOR mode'' to route
all network access via TOR (an anonymity network). WARNING: As of now
this still leaks the DNS queries; e.g. to lookup the hosts in a
keyserver pool. Certain other features are disabled if this mode is
active.
