Search for PGP subkeys in a keyserver-acceptable way

Browse Source 
PGP keyservers are pieces of sh** when it comes to searching for
subkeys, and only allow it if you submit an 8-character fingerprint
rather than the recommended and less chance of collision 16-character
fingerprint.

Add a second remote lookup for the 8-character version of a key ID if we
don't find anything the first time we look up the key. This fixes
FS#27612 and the deficiency has been sent upstream to the GnuPG users
mailing list as well.
