  gpgPublicKeys()
Returns the list of key fingerprints found in the public keyring.

  checkGpgHasDefinedKeyserver
Throws an exception if no keyserver is defined in GnuPG configuration.

When using GnuPG 2.x, a keyserver can be defined either in dirmngr's configuration or in good old gpg.conf, so we check both.

Argument: number of public keys in the keyring. Returns the desirable average lapse time (in seconds) between two key fetches.
