This release in a RC for gnupg-2.2. The main difference as far as
nixpkgs is concerned is that the binary `gpg2` is now called `gpg` and
`gpgv2` is called `gpgv`.
This update fixed all explicit use of `gpg2` and `gpgv2` across nixpkgs,
but there might be some packaged software that internally use `gpg2`
not handeled by this commit.
