3072-bit RSA is widely considered to be 128-bit-equivalent security.
This is a sensible default in 2017.

This patch separates Libgcrypt and OpenPGP public key algorithms ids
and in most cases completely removes the Libgcrypt ones. This is
useful because for Libgcrypt we specify the algorithm in the
S-expressions and the public key ids are not anymore needed.
This patch also adds some support for PUBKEY_ALGO_EDDSA which will
eventually be used instead of merging EdDSA with ECDSA. As of now an
experimental algorithm id is used but the plan is to write an I-D so
that we can get a new id from the IETF. Note that EdDSA (Ed25519)
does not yet work and that more changes are required.
The ECC support is still broken right now. Needs to be fixed.

The asymmetric quotes used by GNU in the past (`...') don't render
nicely on modern systems. We now use two \x27 characters ('...').
The proper solution would be to use the correct Unicode symmetric
quotes here. However this has the disadvantage that the system
requires Unicode support. We don't want that today. If Unicode is
available a generated po file can be used to output proper quotes. A
simple sed script like the one used for en@quote is sufficient to
change them.
The changes have been done by applying
sed -i "s/\`\([^'\`]*\)'/'\1'/g"
to most files and fixing obvious problems by hand. The msgid strings in
the po files were fixed with a similar command.
Using "gpgsm --genkey" allows the creation of a self-signed
certificate via a new prompt.
Using "gpgsm --genkey --batch" should allow the creation of arbitrary
certificates controlled by a parameter file. An example parameter file
is
Key-Type: RSA
Key-Length: 1024
Key-Grip: 2C50DC6101C10C9C643E315FE3EADCCBC24F4BEA
Key-Usage: sign, encrypt
Serial: random
Name-DN: CN=some test key
Name-Email: foo@example.org
Name-Email: bar@exmaple.org
Hash-Algo: SHA384
not-after: 2038-01-16 12:44
This creates a self-signed X.509 certificate using the key given by
the keygrip and using SHA-384 as hash algorithm. The keyword
signing-key can be used to sign the certificate with a different key.
See sm/certreggen.c for details.
We better do this once and for all instead of cluttering all future
commits with diffs of trailing white spaces. In the majority of cases
blank or single lines are affected and thus this change won't disturb
a git blame too much. For future commits the pre-commit scripts
checks that this won't happen again.
