Comment:
pgp_ask_for_key() uses pgp_getkeybystr() to parse the pubring.
pgp_getkeybystr() does not assume that the search string is a keyID, it
just passes it along as a hint in $pgp_listkeys_command.
In the case of this bug, I presume that there was a single match, so we
could give some sort of feedback. But I'm not sure what to do about the
more general case where there may be multiple matches.
The feedback would need to be returned via a function parameter, since it
appears pgp_getkeybystr() is called in situations where invoking
mutt_error() directly would not work.
