[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Eliminate the internal OpenPGP parser (Issue #1935)

[Panu Matilainen]

If the PGP library actually exports digesting functionality then perhaps it could be used, but I wouldn't worry about that at this point. Rpm would operate without PGP of any kind, but it will not operate without hashes, so clearly hashes are a key functionality in rpm and from that POV it makes sense to have an abstraction over them within rpm regardless of what happens with PGP.

To me, the point of going to an external library is largely to be able to say "la-la-la, talk to those fellas" regarding bugs, crypto implementation choices and whatnot.
