With the gpg-agent taking care of the secret keys, the user needs to
migrate existing keys from secring.gpg to the agent.  This and also
the standard import of secret keys required the user to unprotect the
secret keys first, so that gpg-agent was able to re-protected them
using its own scheme.  With many secret keys this is quite some
usability hurdle.  In particular if a passphrase is not instantly
available.

To make this migration smoother, this patch implements an unattended
key import/migration which delays the conversion to the gpg-agent
format until the key is actually used.  For example:

   gpg2 --batch --import mysecretkey.gpg

works without any user interaction due to the use of --batch.  Now if
a key is used (e.g. "gpg2 -su USERID_FROM_MYSECRETKEY foo"), gpg-agent
has to ask for the passphrase anyway, converts the key from the
openpgp format to the internal format, signs, re-encrypts the key and
tries to store it in the gpg-agent format to the disk.  The next time,
the internal format of the key is used.

This patch has only been tested with the old demo keys, more tests
with other protection formats and no protection are needed.

b008274afd Nuked almost all trailing white space.
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.
