* configure.ac: Added --enable-large-secmem option. * g10/options.h: Add opt.flags.large_rsa. * g10/gpg.c: Contingent on configure option: adjust secmem size, add gpg --enable-large-rsa, bound to opt.flags.large_rsa. * g10/keygen.c: Adjust max RSA size based on opt.flags.large_rsa * doc/gpg.texi: Document --enable-large-rsa. -- This is a cherry-pick of 534e2876acc05f9f8d9b54c18511fe768d77dfb5 from STABLE-BRANCH-1-4 against STABLE-BRANCH-2-0 Some older implementations built and used RSA keys up to 16Kib, but the larger secret keys now fail when used by more recent GnuPG, due to secure memory limitations. Building with ./configure --enable-large-secmem will make gpg capable of working with those secret keys, as well as permitting the use of a new gpg option --enable-large-rsa, which let gpg generate RSA keys up to 8Kib when used with --batch --gen-key.
