[issue218] gpgme: include a struct dn_pair * dn; in either gpgme_userid_t or gpgme_key_t

[Marc Mutz]

New submission from Marc Mutz <marc at klaralvdalens-datakonsult.se>:

Currently, every application needs to include it's own DN parsing code. We, 
e.g. use a slightly C++-ified version of what is presumably the original code 
in gpgsm. Since that is not exactly trivial code, it would be best to not 
require the gpgme user to write it :) 
A new field 
  struct dn_pair * dn; 
in gpgme_key_t (since there's only ever one of them, like the issuer_serial and 
chain_id), or, if it must be, in gpgme_userid_t. 
 
After all, you also provide a parsed-down version of OpenPGP uids: 
(name,comment,email).
