[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] OpenPGP Backend based on Sequoia (Issue #1978)

> The bigger issue is that Rust is a significant build-dependency (dragging in LLVM and version interdependencies and whatnot) which matters for bootstrapping, and may be difficult sell at all in some use-scenarios. Planning for build-time switchable implementation is (relatively) cheap insurance for that.

I fully agree with having an interface that can be easily implemented by different backends.  This means the backends "compete" on features rather than rely on vendor lock in.  And different systems, of course, have different requirements, which may be better fulfilled by different backends.
