gpg: Stop early when trying to create a primary Elgamal key.
* g10/misc.c (openpgp_pk_test_algo2): Add extra check. -- The problem is that --key-gen --batch with a parameter file didn't detect that Elgamal is not capable of signing and so an error was only triggered at the time the self-signature was created. See the code comment for details. GnuPG-bug-id: 4329 Signed-off-by: Werner Koch <wk@gnupg.org>
